ProduceError:
PROC [code: ErrorCode, explanation: Rope.
ROPE, info:
REF ¬
NIL];
Raises PFS.Error for the code ATOM that corresponds lexically to the "code". The PFS.ErrorGroup in the error is properly set. The error will contain "explanation". Clients should use this procedure to generate PFS.Error's for existing codes to avoid spelling the ATOM's wrong and getting the wrong PFS.ErrorGroup.
AtomFromErrorCode: PROC [ErrorCode] RETURNS [ATOM];
ErrorCodeFromAtom: PROC [ATOM] RETURNS [ErrorCode];

Event:

chain: REF Event -- used internally to chain events together
];
NextEvent:
PROC [
REF
READONLY Event ¬
NIL]
RETURNS [
REF
READONLY Event];
An event is the start or conclusion of retrieving, storing, deleting, renaming or storing a file, or the close of a file open for writing. NextEvent returns the next event that occurs after the argument Event. When the argument Event is NIL then NextEvent returns the first event to occur after the time of the call. NextEvent will WAIT if another event has not occurred yet. Storing, retrieving, flushing, renaming and copying of several files can be in progress simultaneously.

Clients are warned that the resulting file descriptor may be positioned at an arbitrary place within the file. Use UnixSysCalls.LSeek to position it before performing any read or write operations. Also, beware of the possibility of concurrent access to the underlying OpenFile.
