49 =head1 DESCRIPTION
51 This packages defines channels that can be used in Automake to
52 output diagnostics and other messages (via C<msg()>). It also defines
53 some helper function to enable or disable these channels, and some
54 shorthand function to output on specific channels.

68 =head2 CHANNELS
70 The following channels can be used as the first argument of
71 C<Automake::Channel::msg>. For some of them we list a shorthand
72 function that makes the code more readable.
74 =over 4
76 =item C<fatal>
78 Fatal errors. Use C<&fatal> to send messages over this channel.
80 =item C<error>
82 Common errors. Use C<&error> to send messages over this channel.
84 =item C<error-gnu>
86 Errors related to GNU Standards.
88 =item C<error-gnu/warn>
90 Errors related to GNU Standards that should be warnings in 'foreign' mode.
92 =item C<error-gnits>
94 Errors related to GNITS Standards (silent by default).
96 =item C<automake>
98 Internal errors. Use C<&prog_error> to send messages over this channel.
100 =item C<gnu>
102 Warnings related to GNU Coding Standards.
104 =item C<obsolete>
106 Warnings about obsolete features (silent by default).
108 =item C<override>
110 Warnings about user redefinitions of Automake rules or
111 variables (silent by default).
113 =item C<portability>
115 Warnings about non-portable constructs.
117 =item C<extra-portability>
119 Extra warnings about non-portable constructs covering obscure tools.
121 =item C<syntax>
123 Warnings about weird syntax, unused variables, typos...
125 =item C<unsupported>
127 Warnings about unsupported (or mis-supported) features.
129 =item C<verb>
131 Messages output in C<--verbose> mode. Use C<&verb> to send such messages.
133 =item C<note>
135 Informative messages.

193 syntax dubious syntactic constructs (default)
194 unsupported unsupported or incomplete features (default)
