Hi Robert,

As I continue working with JShell, I’ve notice messaging inconsistencies:

Here are three different informational JShell messages:

<press shift-tab again to see javadoc>

-- Press space for next page, Q to quit. --

| some informational message


Is there any reason for the differences in notation? Shouldn’t all messages be uniform in syntax so as not to confuse users (especially students).

Best,
Paul

The first two should be consistent. The bar prefix is a different animal.

Change:

 -- Press space for next page, Q to quit. --
 -- Press space for next javadoc, Q to quit. --

to:

 <press space for next page, Q to quit>
 <press space for next javadoc, Q to quit>
