System Function EM

⎕EM - Error Message

⎕EM is an ISO 13751 standard niladic system function which returns the current error message. This is typically an array of three strings. The first element is the text of the error message itself, in all upper case. The second element is the line typed in or the line of the function where the error occurred. The third element is usually a caret (^) pointing to where the error in the line shown in the second element occurred.

The format of ⎕EM is implementation dependent.
