In Event Customization add (or define) "$*" to the "Event Log Message". $*
will display both the names of the variable bindings and the values. You are
correct about the [1], [2], etc. Once you see exactly what you are getting
in the traps you can go back and redefine to display the verbage and
variable bindings you want to display or act upon ($1, $2, etc.).
