/*
 * Overview:
 * --------
 * The exception package makes it possible for clients to
 * specify a handler for an exceptional conditions in a
 * syntactically readable way.  As a client, your first step
 * is to declare an exception condition name by declaring
 * a variable of type exception, as in
 *
 *       exception MyException;
 *
 * Normal visibility rules apply, so that you should declare
 * the exception variable at the appropriate level.  For
 * example, if an exception is local to an implementation,
 * it should be declared statically within that module.  If
 * an exception condition is shared by many modules, the
 * exception variable should be declared in an interface
 * and exported to all clients that need it.  This package
 * defines and exports the exception ErrorException, which
 * is likely to be sufficient for many clients.
 *
 * The basic functionality of exceptions is that one piece
 * of code can "raise" an exception so that it can then be
 * "handled" by special code in a dynamically enclosing
 * section of the program.  Exceptions are raised by calling
 * the pseudo-function raise with the exception name, as in
 *
 *     raise(MyException);
 *
 * Exceptions are handled using the "try" statement
 * (actually implemented using macros), which has the form:
 *
 *     try {
 *        . . . statements in the body of the block . . .
 *     except(exception1)
 *        . . . statements to handle exception 1 . . .
 *     except(exception2)
 *        . . . statements to handle exception 2 . . .
 *     except(ANY)
 *        . . . statements to handle any exception . . .
 *     } endtry
 *
 * Any number of except clauses may appear (up to a
 * maximum defined by the constant MaxExceptionsPerScope),
 * and the ANY clause is optional.
 *
 * When the program encounters the "try" statement, the
 * statements in the body are executed.  If no exception
 * conditions are raised during that execution, either
 * in this block or by a function call nested inside
 * this block, control passes to the end of the "try"
 * statement when the last statement in the block is
 * executed.  If an exception is raised during the
 * dynamic execution of the block, control immediately
 * passes to the statements in the appropriate except
 * clause.  Only the statements in that clause are
 * executed; no break statement is required to exit
 * the block.  If no handler for the raised exception
 * appears anywhere in the control history, the program
 * exits with an error.
 *
 * Examples of use:
 *
 * 1.  Catching errors.
 *
 * The following code fragment traps calls to Error, so
 * that the program does not quit but instead returns
 * to the top-level read-and-execute loop.
 *
 *     while (TRUE) {
 *         try {
 *             printf("> ");
 *             cmd = ReadCommand();
 *             ExecuteCommand(cmd);
 *         except(ErrorException)
 *             -- additional handling code, if any --
 *         } endtry
 *     }
 *
 * If either ReadCommand or ExecuteCommand calls Error,
 * control will be passed back to the main loop, after
 * executing any additional handler code.  (The error
 * message is printed by the Error routine, so it is
 * often the case that no additional work is needed.)
 *
 * 2.  Handling control-C
 *
 * The following code extends the example above so that
 * typing ^C also returns to top-level.
 *
 *     #include <signal.h>
 *
 *     static exception ControlCException;
 *     static int errorCount = 0;
 *     static int ControlCHandler();
 *
 *     main()
 *     {
 *         string cmd;
 *
 *         signal(SIGINT, ControlCHandler);
 *         while (TRUE) {
 *             try {
 *                 printf("> ");
 *                 cmd = ReadCommand();
 *                 ExecuteCommand(cmd);
 *             except(ControlCException);
 *                 printf("^C\n");
 *                 signal(SIGINT, ControlCHandler);
 *             except(ErrorException)
 *                 errorCount++;
 *             } endtry
 *         }
 *     }
 *
 *     static int ControlCHandler()
 *     {
 *         raise(ControlCException);
 *     }
