@onetom What a silly mistake, thanks so much for catching that!

That totally fixed it, thank you! It's too bad that error passed silently rather than getting caught and logged by boot-reload somewhere

(anyone know if that'd be a new-contributor-friendly change? if so I'd be happy to give it a shot)

@jab so the issue here is that (reload (:on-jsload 'some/sym)) is the same as saying (reload nil) and that doesn't throw an error. but should it throw? what would be the error message?

i've dig down to the root of the issue and it's this line: https://github.com/boot-clj/boot/blob/master/boot/core/src/boot/cli.clj#L168 nils are simply swallowed. i looked into the tests, but they don't explain why: • https://github.com/boot-clj/boot/blob/master/boot/core/test/boot/test_test.clj • https://github.com/boot-clj/boot/blob/master/boot/core/test/boot/task/built_in_test.clj

@onetom i think it's just how the base case for the recursion was done

nil in that loop means no more args
