Java 7 allows multiple Exceptions to be listed in a single catch

However, I find it a bit awkward to read the clause when no spaces are used.
Compare

with
} catch (NumberFormatException | IOException | ScriptException e) { //
spaced out
I find the second version with spaces both sides of the "|" character
much easier to read.
This is particularly true where the exception name starts with the
letters "Ill" as in
} catch (NumberFormatException|IllegalArgumentException|ScriptException
e) { // nospaces
Agreed?
Yes, the spaces version seems better for have a better readable.
