        Right.... It's NOT a simple command.

        I am trapping on ERR, not 'anything' that is not zero.

Of all the stupid definitions... you have 256 useful values to return, and some
idiots decide 255 of them should be reserved for fatal errors (even when they 
are
not errors)...

        Is this even fixable?
