Lewis, 
The value of the error return of "0" being printed out means that
the plot succeeded. You should only need to worry about these if 
the status is non-zero.

I see where the logging exists in $GEMPAK/source/programs/gui/nmap2/nmap_dsp.c
(line 1171), ane the call to er_wmsg should likely check first 

if (ier != 0)
        er_wmsg...

That would avoid unnecessary truning the error button RED.
