Generically and across the board? Sadly, no. You can capture the
last error message (note the backslash "\" before "@01" to display
the error *message* associated with the numeric error *code*
~):
~~>~
or the *default* PRompt-line MessaGe:
~~>~
or the number of changes made by the last successful CH|CI|CV
command:
~~>~+"_changes"~>~
or the results of the last WC (Word Count) command:
~~>~+"_words"~>~
but not every PRompt falls into those categories. There's a whole
slew of fleeting informational PRompts that cannot be stored to a
S/G.
