Thanks again, Jerry!

However, this does not exit cook.  Instead, it prints the error message,
then continues processing...


shandalle:jody> cat -n a.a
     1
     2  if [not [defined variable_1]] then
     3  {
     4    fail "variable_1 not defined!!!";
     5  }
     6
     7  variable_2 = Foo;
     8
shandalle:jody> cook -book a.a
/* a.list, /home/jody/junk/cookplay, Wed Jun 11 14:47 2003 */
cook: variable_1 not defined!!!
cook: a.a: 7: statement failed
cook: a.a: found 1 fatal error
