Hi,

http://static.rust-lang.org/doc/tutorial-conditions.html says:

When the error site raises a condition handler, the Condition::raise method value searches TLS for the innermost installed handler

What does "TLS" mean in this context?

By the way, I couldn’t find the source for this tutorial in the repository. Where is it?

TLS = task local storage (docs, although it's called local data there).

And I believe the tutorial only exists in @graydon's repo at the moment.

We should probably never use the TLS acronym because it is so overloaded. "task local data" is my preferred term.
