+#ifndef EXCEPT_H

+/*=========================================================================*\
+* Exception control
+* LuaSocket toolkit (but completely independent from other modules)
+*
+* This provides support for simple exceptions in Lua. During the
+* development of the HTTP/FTP/SMTP support, it became aparent that
+* error checking was taking a substantial amount of the coding. These
+* function greatly simplify the task of checking errors.
+*
+* The main idea is that functions should return nil as their first return
+* values when they find an error, and return an error message (or value)
+* following nil. In case of success, as long as the first value is not nil,
+* the other values don't matter.
+*
+* The idea is to nest function calls with the "try" function. This function
+* checks the first value, and, if it's falsy, wraps the second value in a
+* table with metatable and calls "error" on it. Otherwise, it returns all
+* values it received. Basically, it works like the Lua "assert" function,
+* but it creates errors targeted specifically at "protect".
+*
+* The "newtry" function is a factory for "try" functions that call a
+* finalizer in protected mode before calling "error".
+*
+* The "protect" function returns a new function that behaves exactly like
+* the function it receives, but the new function catches exceptions thrown
+* by "try" functions and returns nil followed by the error message instead.
+*
+* With these three functions, it's easy to write functions that throw
+* exceptions on error, but that don't interrupt the user script.
