module Pry::RescuableException

As a REPL, we often want to catch any unexpected exceptions that may have been raised; however we don't want to go overboard and prevent the user from exiting Pry when they want to.

    # Catch when the user hits ^C (Interrupt < SignalException), and assume
    # that they just wanted to stop the in-progress command (just like bash etc.)

    true
    # Don't catch signals (particularly not SIGTERM) as these are unlikely to be
    # intended for pry itself. We should also make sure that Kernel#exit works.
  when *Pry.config.exception_whitelist
    false
    # All other exceptions will be caught.
