Command line expansions of ~ and other special characters


Right now the fhpd command line understands the ~ character as /home/user, and will on tab navigate to the correct location. However passing ~/core.1234 to the CorefileCommand will fail as Java's File apparently does not. This would also be the case with load command. As there is a potential for many areas of duplicate code grappling over Linux special special character expansion, does it make sense to have these expanded before they reach the sub-commands? What about special cases like `pwd `/core.1234? If so, where does this extraction and expansion need to occur?

Regards

Phil
