That's great. I was concerned that stdio was getting lost in the shuffle. I misinterpreted some of the messages. I assume the other (current) solution (to throw an exception) .. is going to be replaced by this. There are still cases which need to be caught like Lisp running out of stack space or memory, and the user deciding that Lisp has been running too long. Lisp provides some help via handler-case.
