Default
$JBCRELEASEDIR/jbcmessages (Unix)"
%JBCRELEASEDIR%\jbcmessages (Windows)

As per normal environment variable. Must be set before jBASE is invoked.

Unix
JBCERRFILE=/usr/global/jBASEerrors
export JBCERRFILE

Notes
Setting this environment variable allows you to have more than one version of the messages displayed by jBASE. This could be desirable if you want different messages or different behavior when a an error is encountered, depending on the user. For example, to prevent a program entering the debugger when an uninitialized variable is encountered, remove the ^WARNING^ string from the ZERO_USED message.
