    error("hello") creates an error and the execution of the remaining SKILL code is immediately terminated.  It does not generate a pop-up, but an error message in the command line.

    Use unwindProtect() if you want to run a function and what ever happens in that function, you always call a final function.

    unwindProtect(main_function() cleanup_Function() )
