Gleckler Email: r6rs at speechcode.com Type: defect Priority: minor Component: Libraries: Exceptions and conditions Version: 5.91 In <14. Exceptions and conditions>, the only paragraph reads: Scheme allows programs to deal with exceptional situations using two cooperating facilities: The exception system allows the program, when it detects an exceptional situation, to pass control to an exception handler, and for dynamically establishing such exception handlers. Exception handlers are always invoked with an object describing the exceptional situation. Scheme's condition system provides a standardized taxonomy of such descriptive objects, as well as facility for defining new condition types. But this makes it unclear what the two facilities are, exceptions and handlers or exceptions and conditions. Rephrase.Received on Tue Nov 14 2006 - 00:23:35 UTC
