I've implemented a rudimentary warning system for relax (the

this similar to what you were thinking about zero bond length warning?
It could use a lot of tweaking. What do you think of the idea of
having two new relax command line flags, '--ignore-errors' which
causes errors to be printed but the program continues execution and
'--pedantic' which escalates the warning into an error? It might be
difficult as it may require the dropping of the use of the Python
Exception and Warning classes and implementing two relax specific
types which when using these two flags can inter convert with each
other (i.e. errors become warnings and vice versa).
I like the look of the RelaxWarnings.
'--ignore-errors' and '--pedantic' options wouldn't be a huge priority
from my point of view, especially if they involve dropping out of the
Python Exception-handling machinery. There might be other ways of doing
it if others think these options are worthwhile.
The more important issue as far as I'm concerned is ensuring that the
default behaviour doesn't raise Errors when Warnings will do.
