Re: How do you gracefully stop the compiler?

`static: echo "compiling..." proc display[T](message: T) = when not (T is 
string): {.fatal: "T is not a string".} echo message # works 
display[string]("hello") # fatal error, compilation aborted # display[int](5) `

Run

The answer to my question in another thread lead to the answer to this one. 
Replace the "compile error" line with:


static:
  doAssert(false, "T is not a string")


Run

The the doAssert will run at compile time.
