That would be cool. There are two issues, however. First, error() I'd bet is one
of the most commonly written routines and everyone already has one or more they
use constantly (I know every single one of my programs defines an error
procedure). Second, you can similate it pretty easy by just calling ?1/0 after
you output the error message to get a ex.err dump.
