Exceptions from C code / handling them in scheme

[Richard Guenther]

Hi!

What is the recommended way to "fail" in C code called from
scheme? I.e. is there something like an exception that can
be thrown and catchen in scheme code? I see there is f.i.
SCM_ASSERT - how can I manually "throw" such an exception and
how can I catch this in scheme code? A simple example would
be helpful.

Thanx, Richard.
