Currently the options that can be used to globally configure the behaviour of `tryCatchLog` functions are documented in different functions. Add a central documentation of the options so that users...

Provide function to rethrow conditions while keeping the original condition and call stack

1

Use cases: - Wrap technical errors to present end-user-friendly errors (e. g. in shiny apps or other UIs) Mainly important for errors and warnings... Possible signature: ` rethrow

While Rs `traceback` shows the function call that caused an error top-most in the call stack output `tryCatchLog` shows it at the bottom (as many other programming languages do). This...

**Problem description:** If I log an error with eg. `tryCatchLog()` the stack trace lines are cut at a column width of 80 or similar which makes it difficult sometimes to...

Provide condition handling vignette with best practices

1

E. g. - how to signal a condition (`signalCondition`?) - how to clean-up resources (`finally` or `on.exit`) - restart types provided by R (`invokeRestart("abort")` to "rethrow a caught interrupt condition"...

**See the excellent eRum 2018 presentation:** > Reducing bewilderment by improving errors | Lionel Henry > > Among the many unusual features of the R language, the condition system is...
