I would like to temporarily suppress some warnings like `[WARNING STA-0122]`. Is there a way to do that? Is there a place to look for the full meaning of warnings and error messages? Some of them are cryptic.

There is no suppression mechanism.  There is no catalog of messages though you can always look at the source code to get more ideas.  Is there a particular message that you are finding cryptic?

I forgot we had that.  I wrote it with unit tests in mind but I guess it works here too.
