@appendix Standard Errors
@cindex error-conditions property

  Here is the complete list of the error symbols in standard Emacs,
grouped by concept.  The list includes each symbol's message (on the
@code{error-message} property of the symbol), and a cross reference to a
description of how the error can occur.

  Each of error symbol has an @code{error-conditions} property that includes
the error itself, and the @code{error} condition, with two exceptions.
@code{quit} does not have the @code{error} condition, and the three
file related errors have the @code{file-error} condition.

  @xref{Errors}, for an explanation of how errors are generated and
handled.
