Summary

All systems provide a default exception handler for run-time errors and exceptions. A common handler is to display an error message and return to the command interpreter. If users want control over errors, they define exception handlers. The user wants to trap certain errors, leaving other exceptions to the default handler. So the default exception handler may be invoked from within a user-defined handler. (cbb 5/80)
