That happens because the colon is treated the separator between the file name and an argument. and Machine.add("C\:/Users/rebecca/tmp.ck") results in error translate escape sequences into characters, long before even constructing the call to Machine.add(). Try Machine.add("C\\:/Users/rebecca/tmp.ck") that will let the escape sequence parse parse \\ into \, and then the argument parser will see \: and leave your filename alone. -- rec --
