I can't use tilde '~' in Java application at JDK 1.1Beta3 on Japanese
Windows95's MS-DOS prompt. Because tilde '~' automatically changes to
question mark '?'.

  But I can use tilde '~' at JDK 1.0.2 on Japanese Windows95's MS-DOS prompt.

  An example at JDK 1.1Beta3 on Japanese Windows95's MS-DOS prompt window.
===============================================================================
E:\PRG>type test.java
import java.io.*;
public class test {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    System.out.println("a~b.txt");
    System.out.println("a\u007eb.txt");
    try {
      FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(new File("a~b.txt"));
      out.write(0x55);
      out.close();
    } catch (IOException ioe) {
      System.out.println("IOException: " + ioe);
    }
  }
}

E:\PRG>javac test.java

E:\PRG>java -version
java version "JDK1.1beta3.3"

E:\PRG>java test
a?b.txt
a?b.txt
IOException: java.io.FileNotFoundException: a?b.txt

E:\PRG>dir /b
test.java
test.class

E:\PRG>
===============================================================================
  According to this example I can't display tilde '~' on console and
can't make a file named "a~b.txt".


  A same example at JDK 1.0.2 on Japanese Windows95's MS-DOS prompt window.
===============================================================================
E:\PRG>type test.java
import java.io.*;
public class test {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    System.out.println("a~b.txt");
    System.out.println("a\u007eb.txt");
    try {
      FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(new File("a~b.txt"));
      out.write(0x55);
      out.close();
    } catch (IOException ioe) {
      System.out.println("IOException: " + ioe);
    }
  }
}

E:\PRG>javac test.java

E:\PRG>java -version
java version "1.0.2"

E:\PRG>java test
a~b.txt
a~b.txt

E:\PRG>dir /b
test.java
test.class
a~b.txt

E:\PRG>
===============================================================================
  According to this example I can display tilde '~' on console and
can make a file named "a~b.txt".
