A downloadable tool

Ever wanted to customize Inform 7's built in messages, but don't know where to start? Here's a list, with comments and organized by type, of every response built into Inform 7's Standard Rules.

While other options exist (Nathanael Nerode's "Neutral Standard Responses" is great), I've tried to explain every parser error and how to trigger it.

I've included it in two formats: Inform 7 extension (install and edit in your project) and plain text (for reference).

This is a work in progress! Give it a try and let me know what you think.
