svn URL question

Hi,

I have a question about Subversion URLs. I started a Subversion server as
svnserve -d -r C:\MyDir\SvnTrial --listen-port=9001 on a Windows XP machine.

I think the error message should be fixed.  On unix, the error is 
something like:

'svn:' is not a working copy

On windows, the error is:

The filename, directory name,
or volume label syntax is incorrect.

To me, the unix error is obvious, whereas the windows one just leaves me 
confused.

'svn status' operates on a working copy, not on URLs.  Try 'svn help 
status'.
