> The ij.driver property is not useful any more and can be removed from the
> documentation. According to Rick Hillegas, "The purpose of the ij.driver
> property is to tell ij to manually load a driver class via
> Class.forName().newInstance(). That's the ancient way of loading drivers. The
> modern way is to rely on driver autoloading."
> The Driver command may still be useful for reloading the driver after the
> Derby engine has been shut down and the driver deregistered, so that can be
> kept.
