Thus, when implementing error handling, I did not try to represent error daat in such a way that a handler could analyze the situation or continue. So I implemented condition-case and that's all. handler-bind is a natural step forward, but it might be desirable to make a way to handle an error and continue from where the error happened. -- Dr Richard Stallman (https://stallman.org) Chief GNUisance of the GNU Project (https://gnu.org) Founder, Free Software Foundation (https://fsf.org) Internet Hall-of-Famer (https://internethalloffame.org)
