I keep getting this error. Picked up JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS: -Xmx128m

import java.io.Console;

public class Introductions {

public static void main(String[] args) {
    Console console = System.console();
    // Welcome to the Introductions program!  Your code goes below here

    console.printf("anything");

} }

Is this from your coding exercises or workspace?

JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS:-Xmx128m is not an error. It's updated version - if you look at the teacher's notes it explains it. Ignore it.

Yes, I have not been able to get Workspace to work at all. I wish I could just use NetBeans.

The problem is I get this output instead of it printing "anything".

We discovered that Workspace was working but its print out was small and right above the blue Treehouse$. It may be working. Look carefully.
