Hi Richard,

I seem to have found a new issue with the java_class template, i.e.  

{{ STUDENT_ANSWER | replace({'public class ': 'class ' }) }} 

public class __tester__ {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        __tester__ main = new __tester__();
        main.runTests();
    }

    public void runTests() {
        {{ TEST.testcode }};
    }
}

A simple test case is to create a question and have the student answer include an escaped quotation mark, e.g. if the answer is something like this

public class X
{
    String s = "\"";
}

It seems to be the escaped quote (\") character that causes the issue, although using template debugging the produced output compiles fine outside of Coderunner. The same error occurs if the Answer uses this character 

We get
NO_PUBLIC_CLASS_FOUND.java:6: error: class __tester__ is public, should be declared in a file named __tester__.java

public class __tester__ {
