Rethink exceptions #109

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Owl currently has only thread-fatal exceptions which can only be caught by 
linked threads.

Given that the current direction is more towards purely functional 
single-threaded use, it would be nice to also have more flexible exceptions.

The R7RS ones seem nice, but adding to meditate queue because these might also 
be added as a library by using threading, support from MCP, hacked into CPS, or 
implemented using hideable state variables or monads.

Too many options, need meditation.
