//
// this function does PSYC variable replacement for error messages
// and informational notices as described in the internet drafts
//
// this code performs okay, but i would rather have it written in C and
// linked to the driver. see also CHANGESTODO for thoughts on how to do a
// generic template replacement C function in a way that it does psyctext()
// effectively, but can also be used for other syntaxes.
