errortype — The classification of an error message

exact classifications are naturally going to vary by system, but
“recoverable” and “fatal” are two possibilities.
DocBook provides four elements for identifying the parts of an error message:
ErrorCode, for the alphanumeric error code (e.g., “-2”);
ErrorName, for the symbolic name of the error
(e.g., “ENOENT”);
ErrorText, for the text of the error message (e.g., “file
not found”); and
ErrorType, for the error type (e.g., “recoverable”).
These elements contain errortype: bridgehead, citation, citetitle, classsynopsisinfo, emphasis (db.emphasis), entry, firstterm, funcsynopsisinfo, glosssee, glossseealso, glossterm, html:button, html:label, html:legend, link, literallayout, member, olink, orgdiv, para, phrase (db.phrase), primary, primaryie, programlisting, quote, refdescriptor, refentrytitle, refname, refpurpose, screen, secondary, secondaryie, see, seealso, seealsoie, seeie, seg, segtitle, simpara, subtitle, synopsis, td, term, termdef, tertiary, tertiaryie, th, title, titleabbrev, tocentry.
