In defense of Jay Sage, I would note that:
1) The original definition of the program error byte (0 if error,
non-zero if OK) made no sense intuitively and was confusing
as well as inflexible.
2) His upgraded CPR has never been publicly distributed. Jay gave
me a copy, with instructions to not give it out to anyone else.
The CPR allows you to have both an extended command processor
and an error handler, instead of forcing you to choose between
them. He also fixed some bugs in the original CPR.
