        !             2: **  SYSEXITS.H -- Exit status codes for system programs.
        !             3: **             @(#)sysexits.h  2.1 DKHOST 84/08/10
        !             4: **
        !             5: **     This include file attempts to categorize possible error
        !             6: **     exit statuses for system programs, notably delivermail
        !             7: **     and the Berkeley network.
        !             8: **
        !             9: **     Error numbers begin at EX__BASE to reduce the possibility of
        !            10: **     clashing with other exit statuses that random programs may
        !            11: **     already return.  The meaning of the codes is approximately
        !            12: **     as follows:
        !            13: **
        !            14: **     EX_USAGE -- The command was used incorrectly, e.g., with
        !            15: **             the wrong number of arguments, a bad flag, a bad
        !            16: **             syntax in a parameter, or whatever.
        !            17: **     EX_DATAERR -- The input data was incorrect in some way.
        !            18: **             This should only be used for user's data & not
        !            19: **             system files.
        !            20: **     EX_NOINPUT -- An input file (not a system file) did not
        !            21: **             exist or was not readable.  This could also include
        !            22: **             errors like "No message" to a mailer (if it cared
        !            23: **             to catch it).
        !            24: **     EX_NOUSER -- The user specified did not exist.  This might
        !            25: **             be used for mail addresses or remote logins.
        !            26: **     EX_NOHOST -- The host specified did not exist.  This is used
        !            27: **             in mail addresses or network requests.
        !            28: **     EX_UNAVAILABLE -- A service is unavailable.  This can occur
        !            29: **             if a support program or file does not exist.  This
        !            30: **             can also be used as a catchall message when something
        !            31: **             you wanted to do doesn't work, but you don't know
        !            32: **             why.
        !            33: **     EX_SOFTWARE -- An internal software error has been detected.
        !            34: **             This should be limited to non-operating system related
        !            35: **             errors as possible.
        !            36: **     EX_OSERR -- An operating system error has been detected.
        !            37: **             This is intended to be used for such things as "cannot
        !            38: **             fork", "cannot create pipe", or the like.  It includes
        !            39: **             things like getuid returning a user that does not
        !            40: **             exist in the passwd file.
        !            41: **     EX_OSFILE -- Some system file (e.g., /etc/passwd, /etc/utmp,
        !            42: **             etc.) does not exist, cannot be opened, or has some
        !            43: **             sort of error (e.g., syntax error).
        !            44: **     EX_CANTCREAT -- A (user specified) output file cannot be
        !            45: **             created.
        !            46: **     EX_IOERR -- An error occurred while doing I/O on some file.
        !            47: **     EX_TEMPFAIL -- temporary failure, indicating something that
        !            48: **             is not really an error.  In sendmail, this means
        !            49: **             that a mailer (e.g.) could not create a connection,
        !            50: **             and the request should be reattempted later.
        !            51: **     EX_PROTOCOL -- the remote system returned something that
        !            52: **             was "not possible" during a protocol exchange.
        !            53: **
