Re: Support for exceptions

Yeah, it is not entirely unproblematic. But I really think ignoring errors is worse. Think of an abnormal situation which prevents an application from being able to save a document. Suppose this condition is detected while opening the file which is being worked on. Suppose that is ignored. The user will be happy with editing his important document, and only after he has made his changes, working for some time, out of a sudden, his data will be lost because he can not save. If the application would have terminated right at the start, I think that would have been the better alternative.

Have a nice Saturday night!
