The following print commands are available:

For terminal runs, the string “WARNING” precedes the warning message.
For runs from the GUI, the warning message is displayed in colour.

!!print_error

The print commands accept multiple arguments separated by commas.

Example 1

!!print "2*#b = ", 2*#b
!!if #a < 2*#b then
!! print_error "The value of #a is too small:", #a, " (exiting now)"
!! exit
!!endif

Example 2

Print the value of #b to the .out file at the location where it appears in the .pre file.
