1            AMBIGUOUS INPUT REDIRECT

             More than one input redirection character ( < ) appears in the INFO
             string.  For example,

                   RUN prog; INFO="< infile1 < infile2"

             Remove one of the input redirection specifiers.

2            AMBIGUOUS OUTPUT REDIRECT

             More than one output redirection character ( > ) appears in the INFO
             string.  For example,

                   RUN prog; INFO="> outfile1 > outfile2"

             Remove one of the output redirection specifiers.

3            BAD NAME FOR REDIRECT

             The file name specified for input/output redirection in the INFO string
             does not begin with an asterisk ( * ), a dollar sign ( $ ), or an
             alphabetic character.  For example,

                   RUN prog; INFO="> 2badfile"

             Specify a valid file name for input/output redirection.

4            MISSING NAME FOR REDIRECT

             An input/output redirection character ( < or > ) appears in the INFO
             string but no corresponding file name is specified.  For example,

                   RUN prog; INFO="<"

             Specify a file name for the redirection.

5            UNMATCHED QUOTE WITHIN INFO STRING

             A quoted string within the INFO string contains a beginning quote but no
             matching end quote.  For example,

                   RUN prog; INFO="'quoted string"

             Add a matching end quote to the quoted string.

6            REDIRECTION OF STDIN FAILED

             The file specified for input redirection in the INFO string can not be
             opened.  For example,

                   RUN prog; INFO="< badfile"

             where badfile does not exist.

             Check to see if the file specified for redirection exists and is
             accessible for reading by the user invoking the program.

7            REDIRECTION OF STDOUT FAILED

             The file specified for output redirection in the INFO string can not be
             opened.  For example,

                   RUN prog; INFO="> badfile"

             where badfile can not be opened for writing.

             Check to see if the file specified for redirection is accessible for
             writing by the user invoking the program.

9            NO FILES FOUND IN FILE-SET

             A file-set wildcard specified in the INFO string did not match any files.
             For example,

                   RUN prog; INFO="@.nofiles"

             where nofiles is a group containing no files.

             Check to see if the file-set wildcard represents a non-empty file-set.

10           ERROR IN EXPANDING FILE-SET WILDCARD

             The file-set wildcard expander encountered an error in trying to expand a
             file-set wildcard in the INFO string.  For example,

                   RUN prog; INFO="@.badgroup"

             where badgroup is a non-existent group.

             Check to see if the file-set wildcard represents a valid file-set.

          Table B-0.  (cont.) 

12           INFO STRING ARG LIST TOO LONG

             The number of arguments (argv elements) specified in the INFO string
             exceeds the 1023 argument limit.  For example,

                   RUN prog; INFO="@.@.@"

             where the file-set @.@.@ contains more than 1023 files.

             Reduce the number of arguments specified in the INFO string.

13           AMBIGUOUS USE OF QUOTES WITHIN INFO STRING

             A quote character that is not a closing quote or an escaped quote is
             specified within a quoted string in the INFO string.  For example,

                   RUN prog; INFO="'abcd'e"

             The quote character between the characters d and e is not considered a
             closing quote because the character following it is not a valid string
             terminator, such as a space, tab or redirection character.

             Insert a string terminator character after the closing quote.  For
             example,

                   RUN prog; INFO="'abcd' e"
