According to Jesper Lund:
Is there a (simple) way of trapping runtime I/O errors in GPC, like the {$I-} compiler directive in Borland Pascal? [...]
Not yet, but it is being worked on. (Interested to take part?;-)
[...] to emulate the Borland 'Val' procedure.
`Val' is being worked on as well.

Agh, does that mean I have to pull my finger out?
I think I've got the compiler side working in an older beta, but the rtl has to be modified to support it.
Problem is, {$I-} could be even longer yet because I'm changing jobs (cities too) soon and I don't know how long I'll be off the net (going off shortly before 17 Nov)
I should at least be able to get some patches relative to the latest beta (I think I still have to download it) before then. Bill -- Leave others their otherness.
