/** @defgroup YAPErrorHandler Error Handling

@ingroup YAPErrors
@{

The error handler is called when there is an execution error or a
warning needs to be displayed. The handlers include a number of hooks
to allow user-control.

Errors are terms of the form:

   - error( domain_error( Domain, Culprit )`
   - error( evaluation_error( Expression, Culprit )`
   - error( existence_error( Object, Culprit )`
   - error( instantiation_error )`
   - error( permission_error( Error, Permission, Culprit)`
   - error( representation_error( Domain, Culprit )`
   - error( resource_error( Resource, Culprit )`
   - error( syntax_error( Error )`
   - error( system_error( Domain, Culprit )`
   - error( type_error( Type, Culprit )`
   - error( uninstantiation_error(  Culprit )`
