This Site Careers Other all forums Forum: Beginning Java Terminal Error Renne Bautista Greenhorn Posts: 9 posted 1 year ago Hey everyone. So after https://coderanch.com/t/651620/java/java/Terminal-Error getting advice from a friend and also the book I'm reading, to not start off using an IDE, I'm now using the terminal with JDK 7. I wrote: public class HelloWorld { public static void main (String[] arg) { System.out.print(“Hello, World”); } } I wrote this just to make sure I had everything running correctly, in error illegal terms of paths and such. This is what the terminal comes back with: Last login: Mon Jun 22 16:55:51 on ttys000 RenneBaistasMBP:~ RB$ cd Desktop RenneBaistasMBP:Desktop RB$ javac helloworld.java helloworld.java:3: error: illegal character: \8220 System.out.println(“Hello, World”); ^ helloworld.java:3: error: ';' expected System.out.println(“Hello, World”); ^ helloworld.java:3: error: illegal start of expression System.out.println(“Hello, World”); ^ helloworld.java:3: error: illegal character: error illegal character \8221 System.out.println(“Hello, World”); ^ 4 errors RenneBaistasMBP:Desktop RB$ I don't see why there should be any errors with the code. Can anyone give me an idea of what I'm doing wrong or point me in the right direction? -Renne Knute Snortum Bartender Posts: 2525 43 I like... posted 1 year ago You probably are using a word processor to put in the text. It has put "smart quotes" in instead of simple straight quotes. Use a text editor like vi (in Linux/Mac?) or Notepad (in Windows). There are other text-friendly editors like Notepad++ that you can use too. All things are lawful, but not all things are profitable.
