Also, those 3 > Windows platforms cannot perform "for" loops on paths with spaces. Take a look at org.apache.tomcat.startup.Main and IntrospectionUtil.

And no 'for' is needed - at least not to construct CLASSPATHs - it can ( and should ) be done in java. > Of course, maybe I am obsessing way too much about support for Windows > 95, 98, and ME.
