Misleading error-info

Post by PeterH »

If, in a ::load, I specify a nonexisting file, the errormsg says the wrong filename with an appended .xys - no matter what the original ending was.
wrong.txt :arrow: wrong.txt.xys
wrong.xys :arrow: wrong.xys.xys

I think, when "wrong.txt" is not found, so XY tries to add the ".xys"-postfix. If there is also no file called "wrong.txt.xys" XY prints this error... and the message only shows up the wrong filename, but it checked the existing of the right one.

That's right. But the message is indeed misleading. I fixed that. Now it will show the first, unaltered filename.

...verified...

And I must say: one of the many many pieces of good work in the current beta!

Thanks to Don!
