Something   like   this  gives  an  easy readable output, when
$EnableMarkupDiag = 1;
in config. These error messages appear ahead of the PHP error messages,
which can be numerous:

function Markup($id, $when, $pat=NULL, $rep=NULL) {
  global $MarkupTable, $EnableMarkupDiag;
      if ($EnableMarkupDiag && preg_match('!/[^/]*e[^/]*$!', $pat)) {
        $er = debug_backtrace();
        echo "<b>ERROR:</b> markup definition with regex /e modifier ";
        echo "in <b>".$er[0]['file']."</b> on line <b>".$er[0]['line']."</b> pattern=<b>".$er[0]['args'][2]."</b><br/>"; 
      }
      .................



Best regards,
 Hans
