SET LEVEL

    SET LEVEL minimalForStandardOut [ minimalForFile ]

    Integer ::  minimalForStandardOut  !  in range 0 to 9
    Integer ::  minimalForFile         !  in range 0 to 9

    Set minimal "level" for paKo "messages" to be written
    1: interactively to the standard output, i.e., the terminal window
    2: to the message log file pako.mes.

    All paKo "messages" have an associated severity number.  With SET
    LEVEL we can select that only messages with severity higher than
    minimalForStandardOut (minimalForFile) are written.  Very serious
    messages with severity 9 and higher can NOT be turned off.

    The severity number for messages of kind:

    I   is 1 or 2           Informational message
    W   is 3 or 4           Warning       message
    E   is 5 or 6           Error         message
    F   is 7 or higher      Fatal Error   message

    Example: SET LEVEL 5 3

    Has the effect that "I" messages are not shown at all, and only "E"
    and "F" messages are shown in the terminal window.
