My versin says:


     file_errors(fail/error)
         If error (default), throw and  existence_error exception  if the
         file cannot  be found.    If  fail, stay  silent.f

         [footnote] Silent operation was the default upto version 3.2.6.

this looks ok to me?

[Thanks for answering so many questions!]
