Wim,

I tried to return non-zero exit codes from programs such as ogr2ogr in
case of error. Skimming through ogr2ogr.cpp I see that I just return exit
code 1 for all errors, and return 0 on success. So you can't really determine
what went wrong from the error code, but by testing for non-zero values
you can determine if some sort of error occured.

Best regards,
