ADDITIONAL SYSTEM INFORMATION :
Ubuntu 20.10, JDK 15

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
In the Linux man file for the java command in JDK 15, the path arguments to options such as -classpath say "A semicolon (;) separated list of directories..." which is true on Windows but should say "colon (:)" when on a Linux system.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
man java | grep 'list of directories'

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
Should say "A colon (:) separated list of directories"
ACTUAL -
Says "A semicolon (;) separated list of directories"
