ABSTRACT:
A method of operating a computer system is disclosed that is useful in connection with programs that provide the user with messages such as error messages. The error messages are stored in an indexed file, at least some of the messages having token words whose meaning must be provided in order to give complete meaning to the error message. A dictionary list of the definitions for all token words that may be encountered when a command of the program is executed is developed prior to a point in the program where a message is retrieved from the indexed file. If the proper condition is developed to indicate that an error message is necessary, the error message number corresponding to that condition is used to recover the appropriate error message with token words either from the indexed file or from a local header table. The token words are then replaced with definitions from the dictionary list and the error message is delivered to the user.
