DESCRIPTION

This routine writes a string to stdout if the first paramter is equal to or exceeds the verbose level set by kjb_set_verbose_level. When verbose_pso prints, it prepends a string to each line which identifies that the verbosity level cutoff. That string is "<< %d >> ". Otherwise it is similar to kjb_puts.

RETURNS

Returns the number of characters written, which is zero in the case of the verbose level being smaller than the argument. ERROR is returned if there is an error.

verbose_pso, kjb_puts
