There's an "error" command in the shell for that :)
Oh - indeed, this could be handy:
~> error
usage: error <error number>
Prints clear text error messages for given error numbers.
Would the reverse be useful? - enter a string and get the error code
value: error [-n] 0x80000005 --> Invalid Argument; error -s 'Invalid
Argument' --> 0x8000005 or B_BAD_VALUE or some decomposition as
appropriate, and maybe any complimentary values
Usually you have only the error code that's printf-ed out for brevity, so.
It also accepts names like EINVAL or B_ERROR.
But patches are always appreciated; cf.
src/bin/error.c
I think something as simple as a -l to list all the known errors, so you
can | grep "Invalid" for ex. would be enough.
Note I'm not sure it's in sync with the complete error list nowadays.
