Description

   These routines offer an interface to convert MRD status codes,
   element exception codes and constants for other common words
   into internationalized text. The message catalogs used by these
   routines are the same ones used by the Media Robot Utility
   command line interface. However, if no message catalog is
   available, a standard default message will be used for each code.

   The routine mrd_strstatus(3mrd) accepts MRD error codes and
   returns the corresponding message string from the catalog.

   The routine mrd_strelement(3mrd) accepts one of the MRD_ELEMENT
   codes defined in <mrd_message.h> and returns the corresponding
   word. An effort has been made to ensure that the first four
   code values correspond to the SCSI element types of SLOT, DRIVE,
   PORT and TRANSPORT, but the routine will remap these values to
   corresponding MRD_ELEMENT codes and return that string.

   The routine mrd_strexcept(3mrd) accepts the ASC/ASCQ code set
   in the element_info_t structure from an mrd_show(3mrd) or mrd_
   find_cartridge(3mrd) when the ELEMENT_EXCEPT bit is set in the
   data.state field. Using the user provided buffer and length
   it will format the corresponding message to include the ASC
   /ASCQ values and return a pointer to the space. Since many
   of these code are vendor specific, we're unable to provide
   translations for all them, but we have made an effort to include
   the translations for many of the exception codes on supported
   medium-changers.
