# ErrorKind to the rescue
To cope with different kind of errors, we introduce the `kind` of an error `Func1ErrorKind` with an enum.
Because we derive `Debug` and implement `Display` our `Func1ErrorKind` enum, this enum can be used as
a `std::error::Error`.
Only returning `Func1ErrorKind` in `func1()` now let us get rid of `Result<(), Box<Error + Send + Sync>>` and we can
use `ChainResult<(), Func1ErrorKind>`.
In `main` we can now directly use the methods of `chainerror::Error<T>` without downcasting the error first.
Also, a nice `match` on `chainerror::Error<T>.kind()` is now possible, which returns `&T`, meaning `&Func1ErrorKind` here.
