during normal system operation, and while running system tests. Standard
error messages are indicated by asterisks (***).
When cat el is used, the contents of the console event log scroll by. Use the
Ctrl/S key combination to stop the screen from scrolling, and use Ctrl/Q to
resume scrolling.
The more el command allows you to view the console event log one screen at a
