pce-catch_error

pce <- catch_error_signals: bool

Determines PCE's response to (normally) fatal error situations reported by the operating system. When such an error occurs, a [PCE SYSTEM ERROR] is generated. The following signals are considered fatal:

SIGQUIT		So, ^\ can be used to generate an error
SIGILL		Illegal instruction
SIGEMT		Emulator trap
SIGBUS		Bus error (illegal aligned pointer)
SIGSEGV		Segmentation fault (out-of-range pointer)
SIGSYS		Bad argument to system call
SIGPIPE		Broken pipe
SIGFPE		Floating point exception

See your Unix manual for details on these signals.

Defaults: The initial value is @off (do not trap signals). Some host languages switch this flag to @on at initialisation time.
