+Error - Error/exception handling in an OO-ish way
+
+The Error package provides two interfaces. Firstly Error provides a
+procedural interface to exception handling. Secondly Error is a base
+class for errors/exceptions that can either be thrown, for subsequent
+catch, or can simply be recorded.
+
+Errors in the class Error should not be thrown directly, but the user
+should throw errors from a sub-class of Error.
