If you've every tried to do your own error handling in Lucid Common Lisp then IGNORE-ERRORS (or ERRSET) is the Lisp command for you. Last year Jeff Dalton of the U. of Edinburgh gave a wonderful hack for adding IGNORE-ERRORS to Lucid Common Lisp. Today I tried to use his code and I made a discovery: Good News: Sun (Lucid) Common Lisp for the Sun-4, Development Environment 2.1.3 has IGNORE-ERRORS build-in. Bad News: This command is not mentioned in the documentation. As Dr. Stangelove said "What good is it if you don't tell anyone?"
