Description

Following the user guide to create a broker, I did not specify a directory name and I got this stacktrace error message

davsclaus:/opt/apache-artemis-1.0.1-SNAPSHOT/$ ./bin/artemis create
Exception in thread "main" io.airlift.airline.ParseArgumentsMissingException: Required parameters are missing: directory

I think we should make this nicer so there is no stacktraces returned for invalid or missing user input.
