> The following code in ExecuteStreamCommand assumes you're not passing semicolons within your argument. This is a problem for people who need to pass semicolons to the executing program as part of the argument. 
> {code}
> 224            for (String arg : commandArguments.split(";")) { 
> {code}
> To allow for escaped semicolons, I propose we change this to the following regex.
> {code}
> 224            for (String arg : commandArguments.split("[^\\];")) { 
> {code}
> *or*... could we just change the way arguments are passed to make it more similar to how ExecuteCommand works? The whole semicolon per argument took some getting used to, and doesn't seem very intuitive.
