+This section details the valid values for each of the

All messages with an equal or higher diagnostic level than the class indicated will be delivered, i.e., if

+\fIerror\fR, and

+.TP
+warning
+.RS 4
+Includes warning messages. These indicate conditions (including retries when attempting to acquire semaphores) that warrant further investigation by the system operator, but do not typically prevent applications from running.
+.RE
+.TP
+error
+.RS 4
+Includes error messages. This class of messages indicates that a recoverable error has occurred in the FreeM engine. Warrants immediate attention by the system operator.
+.RE
+.TP
+fatal
+.RS 4
+Includes messages indicating errors that are not recoverable. If this class of message occurs, the process that triggered the message has terminated abnormally.
