There is really no way to trap it? Maybe fork the NimScript stuff to give the option to try to hang around?

I did manage to fork it and prevent it from aborting, but i don't want to maintain it forever. I tracked it down to this function:

It's calling `quit` which cannot be caught in a try statement.
