## Errors
As mentioned,
`error.*` are responsible for all the actual reporting.
All errors which are reported are fatal.
The only errors which are not fatal are those
which occur during a shutdown caused by another error.
Exception like in the sense that they continuously propagate upward.
This is not an architectural nightmare only because
the maximum stack frame number within the code base is very small.
While the codebase has seemingly no direction to bloat to,
if such thing were to happen,
C++ (maybe Objective-C or some dialect)
should be adapted (for true exceptions).
## LS\_COLORS
Using the `ls_colors` Make target,
we can statically render the vim highlighting script.
