H. Troubleshooting

Fatal errors are caught by most NEMO programs by calling the function error (see error(3NEMO)); it reports the name of the invoked program and some offending text that was the argument to the function, and then exits. If the $ERROR level is larger than 0, an error call can postpone the exit for the specified amount of times. If the $DEBUG level is positive, programs also produce a coredump, which can be further examined with local system utilities such as adb(1) or dbx(1). Most of the error messages should be descriptive enough, but a list is being compiled for the somewhat less obvious ones.

Another annoying feature can be large amount of environment variables used by packages. NEMO is no exception. In Section  below all of the environment variables used by NEMO are listed and their functionality. Sometimes they interfere if used in conjunction with other packages.
