[Bluej-discuss] Student "creativity"

My sysadmins have brought to my notice the fact that a small number  
of students (who are using BlueJ on Win XP) have managed in their  
first laboratory session to create an infinitely deep nested  
collection of directories; all of them all called "lab1" and each of  
them contains some .java files, .class files , the standard BlueJ  
files and then ANOTHER directory called "lab1".

(When I say infinitely deep, I mean hundreds of levels to the machine  
limit...)

Can anyone imagine HOW they would have done this?

Thanks

Gordon
