Most functions in `Libshishi' are returning an error if they fail. For this reason, the application should always catch the error condition and take appropriate measures, for example by releasing the resources and passing the error up to the caller, or by displaying a descriptive message to the user and cancelling the operation.
Some error values do not indicate a system error or an error in the operation, but the result of an operation that failed properly.
