| |
| <p>A piece of code may cause an error when you evaluate it. You can |
| designate the error message with the <code class="code">@error{}</code> command. |
| </p> |
| <p>The <code class="code">@error{}</code> command is displayed as ‘<samp class="samp">error→</samp>’, either |
| the word ‘error’ in a box in the printed output, the word error |
| followed by an arrow in other formats or (when no arrow is available) |
| ‘<samp class="samp">error--></samp>’. |
| </p> |
| <p>Thus, |
| </p> |
| <div class="example"> |
| <pre class="example-preformatted">@lisp |
| (+ 23 'x) |
| @error{} Wrong type argument: integer-or-marker-p, x |
| @end lisp |
| </pre></div> |
| |
| <p>produces |
| </p> |
| <div class="example lisp"> |
| <pre class="lisp-preformatted">(+ 23 'x) |
| error→ Wrong type argument: integer-or-marker-p, x |
| </pre></div> |
| |
| <p>This indicates that the following error message is printed |
| when you evaluate the expression: |
| </p> |
| <div class="example lisp"> |
| <pre class="lisp-preformatted">Wrong type argument: integer-or-marker-p, x |
| </pre></div> |
| |
| <p>The word ‘<samp class="samp">error→</samp>’ itself is not part of the error message. |
| </p> |

| </div> |
