description

For `with-input-from-file` and `call-with-input-file`, R5RS just says that the file should exist.  However, `open-input-file` requires an error to be signalled if the file cannot be opened, whether because it does not exist for some other reason like the lack of permissions.  This inconsistency doesn't seem useful.

I propose changing `with-input-from-file` and `call-with-input-file` to also require an error to be signalled if the file cannot be opened.  Every Scheme in my test suite, without exception, already implements this.
