Hi  all,

I am a Julia newbie. Sorry if this is a stupid or known problem, but I 
searched via Google and the Julia issues for it and found nothing.

On my Ubuntu 14.04 machine with Julia version 0.3.0-rc1+54, the following 
commands work fine and as expected:
        julia -e 'a = 6 * 7; println(a)' prints out 42

        julia args.jl 1 Dart C prints out 1, Dart and C
               with args.jl containing:  for arg in ARGS

                                                    println(arg)

                                                  end

On my Windows (8.1) machine with Julia version  0.3.0-prerelease+3952, the 
first prints out the following:

              C:\Users\CVO>julia -e 'a = 6 * 7; println(a)'

                       ERROR: syntax: incomplete: invalid character literal

                           in process_options at client.jl:213

                           in _start at client.jl:354

              obviously the ' character is the error, but I couldn't find 
with what to replace it to make it work

 The second command doesn't give an error, but also does not print out any 
of the arguments.

 What is wrong here ?


Thank you,

Ivo Balbaert
