In fairness to the BSI committee, error handling has been one of their concerns from the very first, and they have adopted a solution which is similar to that in IF/Prolog, except that IF used sensible names for the operations. [As a matter of fact, the solution they have adopted is very similar to what I suggested in a document I sent to the BSI group in 1984, entitled "Notes on the Standard". I have often wondered why this document was not included in the BSI Document Register.]
