### Attributes

## Description

Every `Msg` has one primary message (`MsgMain`). It may also have any number of related messages, stored in `MsgRel` elements within the same `Msg`.

Related messages are usually messages that appear elsewhere in response to the same event (or set of events) that triggered the main message. For example, if a network client produces a failure or warning message, a related message might appear on the server console.

### Processing expectations

May be formatted inline or as a displayed block, depending on context. Sometimes suppressed.

On the whole, the semantics of `MsgSet` are not clearly defined.

### Parents

### Children

The following elements occur in msgrel: `msgtext`, `title`.

## Examples
