Topic: bad error message with unclosed comment


Floris van Doorn (Jul 11 2023 at 09:59):

If you have an unclosed comment in your file, the error messages are not great:

example (n : Nat) : Nat  Nat :=
  Nat.add n -- type mismatch
/-

or

example (n : Nat) : Nat  Nat :=
  Nat.add n -- type mismatch
#exit
/-

Note:

example (n : Nat) : Nat  Nat :=
  Nat.add n -- fine

(there is also an unterminated comment error in the first two examples)
