title: Illegal Character when trying to compile java code
body: <p>I have a program that allows a user to type java code into a rich text box and then compile it using the java compiler. Whenever I try to compile the code that I have written I get an error that says that I have an illegal character at the beginning of my code that is not there. This is the error the compiler is giving me:</p>
  
  <pre><code>C:\Users\Travis Michael&gt;"\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_17\bin\javac" Test.java
  Test.java:1: illegal character: \187
  ∩╗┐public class Test
   ^
  Test.java:1: illegal character: \191
  ∩╗┐public class Test
    ^
  2 errors
  </code></pre>
