- I have mostly avoided dealing with the condition system all my years
- with lispms and now with the new condition system--the primary reason
- being that it was very difficult to find out what condition had been
- signalled that I needed to catch (perhaps it isn't and I was/am just
- ignorant of how), and it's 'name' so that I could use it with
- condition-case.
-
- anyway, I would like to know how (if it's possible) to find out
- programmatically (or is that automagically) what condition is
- signalled when some piece of code does so.
-
- at the moment, I'm getting a ABORT or some sort signalled out of
- CLIM's accepting-values, but if I use handler-case to try to grab it,
- I seem to have the wrong name or something. so what I need today is to
- know what gets signalled when I click on the <abort> exit-box. for the
- future I'd like to know how to find ANYTHING that's signalled.
