getinfo has a new field that shows any alert messages or other errors that would be displayed on the status bar.
The rpc methods return a json-rpc error with the error description “Safe mode: ” followed by additional text specified by the alert.
I added the switch “-testsafemode” for you. SVN rev 145.
This stuff is very new and may still be subject to change.
Perfect, works great for me. Thank you.
