> [~tilman] noted that the external2.ExternalParser uses "replaceAll" on a regex where the replacement is a file path does not work on Windows.  The replaceAll strips the file separators.  I admit that I cannot figure out why this is is happening.  I've tried a couple of combinations of backslashing etc, but nothing is working.  I even tried Pattern.quote() and that doesn't work on Windows. 
> If we back off to use "replace" with a string, everything seems to work.
