pmerr - translate Performance Co-Pilot error codes into error messages

As shipped in IRIX 6.5.5. Unchanged since IRIX 6.5.

NAME
     pmerr - translate Performance Co-Pilot error codes into error messages

SYNOPSIS
     pmerr code ...
     pmerr -l

DESCRIPTION
     pmerr accepts standard Performance Co-Pilot (PCP) error codes via the
     code argument(s) and generates the corresponding error text.

     Each code may be an integer, a hexadecimal value or a hexadecimal value
     prefixed by either ``0x'' or ``0X''.

     Error codes must be less than zero, so if code is a positive number, a
     warning message is produced, and the negated value is used.

     The alternative use of the -l option causes all known error codes to be
     listed, along with their symbolic names and error text.
