Java-repl not working - get terminating and java-repl exits back to treehouse:-~/workspace$ prompt.

Treehouse Guest TeacherI think I found the problem. We had some configuration differences between our different workspace environments (Java vs. Frontend vs PHP, etc..). It appears that attempting to run java-repl from a Frontend workspace exhibits the behavior seen here.
We've updated the system, so java-repl should work anywhere, but we do recommend using the workspace environment that most closely matches your needs.
