It will also get an error exit code if you set one or one gets surfaced from your Python code.

OK, that's cool.

I always have my Python exit with an error code of 99 for an unhandled condition.

Well, you can do that for *known* "unhandled" conditions. Or are you
saying you write all your Python scripts such that there is a
try..except around the whole thing?

(Some people refer to *any* known condition as "handled"; just that
sometimes the handling consists of exiting with an error code or
reraising.)

Then PYRUN picks up the error and sends a CPF error.

This is perhaps nicer than a QSH* error. I take it your CPF* error
occurs whenever the exit code isn't zero?
