An ES-spec-compliant shim/polyfill/replacement for the `.cause` property on all Error types that works as far down as ES3

This package implements the [es-shim API](https://github.com/es-shims/api) “multi” interface. It works in an ES3-supported environment and complies with the proposed [spec](https://tc39.es/proposal-error-cause/).

## Getting started

```sh
npm install --save error-cause
```

## Usage/Examples

```js
const assert = require('assert');

require('error-cause/auto');

try {
		x();
} catch (e) {
		const actual = new Error('a better message!', { cause: e });
		assert(actual instanceof Error);
		assert(actual.cause === e);
}
```

## Tests

Clone the repo, `npm install`, and run `npm test`
