At the moment there's a limited list of messages.

Look in the script of revidelibrary.8.livecodescript... the function 
revIDEMessages() has a list and there are three more in the 
revIDEMessageIsValid() function. From the messagebox, issuing the 
command "put revIDEMessages()" will give you most of them.

Note that none of this is documented at the moment. If you're going to 
try to subscribe to a message, make sure to unsubscribe when you close 
the subscribing stack or issue a revIDEunsubscribeall command, otherwise 
you'll end up with some unexpected experiences. Even there's no explicit 
documentation for the pubsub mechanism, the comments in the script are 
very good.
