I want to write a program which will be writing to the floppy disk
while no one is attending the ST.  Sometimes the floppy may not be
in the disk drive (someone forgets to put one in occasionally) --
How do I interecept the error message that normally pops up?  I'd like
to have the ST continue with the program, log a few lines to the 
printer, and not hang up with "Drive A: Not Responding".
