[Gretl-devel] Re: 'catch' and error messages

the error, whereas I expected it to be silent in that case, no?
BTW, it seems that sometimes it's silent, and sometimes not. After a
fresh restart of gretl, I enter "catch matrix m = I(2,3,4)" in the
console, and I see the message concerning "too many arguments". I can do
this repeatedly, so it's not a matter of newly defining m, it seems.
Then I run a sample script from a function package, go back to the
console, and execute "catch matrix m = I(2,3,4)" again - I silently get
a new prompt.
To be clear, the silent behavior is what I'd expect when using catch,
not the printed error message.
