Oh, don't get me started on the batch mode! It is such a shame that we can't yet provide a really reliable one, even with *batch-exit-on-error*!! I actually have a wishful thinking TODO entry for v14.9 that mentions adding some kind of a user accessible last-exit-status variable and also yet another command prefix, something like "noexit" or so, in equal spirit to nohup(1). That is, we won't have something like set -e if ! false; then echo you _do_ see this; fi false || echo you do see this false echo nirvana set +e but at least batch mode would gain some reliability in sofar that user could control what stops evaluation and what not. It is ever so surprising how long it takes to get this thing going, even more so in respect to its size. I mean, i do not work _so_ much on it, but it surely is something like four plus hours six days a week, and that for way over three years. -> Pfffff!
