It seems to be Acorn's idea that an abstract, non-informing error-message
like "Internal error #" is better (more professional?) than simply
stating what the problem seemed to be!!!
Mostly when I have got errors like this, memory is short...
So, why doesn't the programs say so??? (or better still: give a warning first...
Impression is good at this, it gives you the option of trying to cope...)
