Re: A die(reason) or exit function is missing, isn't it?

[Jan Schütze <JanS@...>]

Hello Alex,

This isn't only used to report an error to users on website.
Since I use lua for webpublishing, I have somewher ein my source a 
function called xml_render() - this one, should use die at the end, to 
prevent from showing header and stuff when the rest of the script is 
executed. The issue is, that this function is called mostly somewhere in 
a set of sets of function-sets, so its not possible (easily, without 
making the source unreadable) to do this via using if-else-constructs.

Kind regards,
 Jan (DracoBlue)
