Dag H. Wanvik commented on DERBY-6462:
--------------------------------------
Sure, the unquoted semicolon is a command separator in most UNIX/Linux shells,
including bash and sh. Usually,
the user is expected to know those things, but we should make sure our examples
are correct. And it is, of course,
appreciated by most users if we give them warnings about such pit-falls,
although it's not strictly a Derby issue...

> Except for initial Windows drive letters (e.g. K:/derby), colons break Derby.
> Windows can't have colons in directory of file names, so this is a Unix issue.
