If post(), error(), etc. are your examples, then verbose() should have no level argument, just the fmt, then it could post at level 4. That makes sense to me. If verbose() is meant to post messages at varying levels, then it should use the same numbering scheme as everything else, i.e.
it's the other way round. if you insist on that, then logpost() should have the same numbering scheme as everything else: logpost(0)==post() logpost(1)==verbose(1) logpost(-1)==error()
I don't think a numbering range from -2 to 2 makes much sense, like you suggest here. Programmers start counting from 0, not -2. You might want to double-check the code if you are wondering how everything else works:
src/s_print.c static void dopost(const char *s) { ... sys_vgui("::pdwindow::post {%s}\n", strnescape(upbuf, s, MAXPDSTRING));
tcl/pdwindow.tcl proc ::pdwindow::post {message} {logpost {} 2 $message}
proc ::pdwindow::verbose {level message} { incr level 4 logpost {} $level $message
The numbers on the Pd window are 0 - 4 and the verbose proc uses "incr level 4" to add 4 to the level before posting, thereby making its own level numbering scheme that is off by four from the rest.
