SysPanic


NAME

SysPanic - emit final error message and abort

SYNOPSIS

PROCEDURE Panic(text: ARRAY OF CHAR);

DESCRIPTION

Panic prints the given error message to standard error and exits immediately without the normal termination procedure (see SysExit). Panic is mainly useful in circumstances where no dynamic memory may be available and therefore StdIO cannot be assumed to work properly. Panic does not return.
