## read-from-string-safely

Arguments: string &optional package eof-error-p eof-value &key start end preserve-whitespace

Like read-from-string and takes similar arguments and behaves the same when there is no error (except for the package argument, see below). But if an error is signaled during the read, this function catches the error and returns `nil`, the value of the :end argument, and the condition signaled.

read-from-string does not accept the optional package argument. If supplied, it must be a package object, or a string or symbol naming a package. The value of `*package*` is bound to that package while the string is read.
