Command: handleerror

NEST HelpDesk Command Index NEST Quick Reference
Name:
handleerror - Default error handler
Examples:
To catch errors from an unknown function f,
one can write:

{f} stopped {handleerror} if
Description:
handleerror is the default error handler.
It issues error messages according to the
state of the errordict.
The command that caused the error is left at the
top of the dicitonary stack.

An error is raised by the command
/func /error raiseerror

The flag newerror helps to distinguish between interrupts caused
by call of stop and interrupts raised by raiseerror.
It also helps to find errors in the handler itself. This is
why it should be re-set to false at the very end of the handler!
