boot.core's Issues

Boot prints `null` instead of message for NullPointerExceptions

Boot prints the exception message when running in non-verbose mode (i.e. no :v option). Null pointer exceptions don't have a message, so boot prints just "null", which is confusing.

Boot should check if the message is null or an empty string, and if so it should print the exception type instead of "null".

an inline comment at the end of a file produces an eof exception

boot generates an eof whenever an inline comment is placed at the end of a file:

$ boot repl
