It's strage that kotlin does not catch it as Java's

getResourceAsStream

is annotated as

@nullable

I thought it would say that you can't call

.reader()' on its result without

?

or

!!`

Companion::class.java.getResourceAsStream("/${resource.removePrefix("/")}").reader()

Have made this slightly friendlier in latest version.

FileNotFoundException

is better yep... Thank you!

(even though it's not technically a file...)
