Dynamic IO throws java.io.FileNotFound exception

Question

Hi, I have the following class ( a prototype) which I want to use to display the contents of any file. I plan to work on this more so it puts it onto a Panel in a different section to the input, but bear with me.
When I enter a file name (even with a full path), it generates the following:
Enter source file to list :
Watch.java
You entered : Watch.java
Error -- java.io.FileNotFoundException: Watch.java
(The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect)
Here is the source code. What am I doing wrong ? If I change the FileReader object and hard code a file name, it works fine. Please help. Thanks.
import java.io.*;
public class ReadSource2
public static String inline()
StringBuffer response = new StringBuffer();
try
{     BufferedInputStream buff = new BufferedInputStream(System.in);
int in = 0;
char inChar;
do {
in = buff.read();
     inChar = (char) in;
     if (in != -1) response.append(inChar);
     } while ((in != -1) && (inChar != '\n'));
     buff.close();
     return response.toString();
catch (IOException e)
     { System.out.println("Exception: " + e.getMessage());
     return null;
public static void main(String[] args)
System.out.println("\nEnter source file to list : ");
String input = ReadSource2.inline();
System.out.println("You entered : " + input);
try
{      FileReader file = new FileReader("" + input);
     BufferedReader buff = new BufferedReader(file);
     boolean eof = false;
     while (!eof)
          String line = buff.readLine();
          if (line == null) eof = true;
          else System.out.println(line);
     buff.close();
catch (IOException e) { System.out.println("Error -- " + e.toString()); }
}

I solved this by trial and error (more error than trial). What was happening was that I was capturing the carriage return as part of the file name, so I had to truncate it from the file name and it now works fine. I made the followingf modification to the main() method:
input = input.substring(0, input.length() - 2) ;
and it works like a charm.
Of course if I hit a Tab before carriage return, it blows up just as it did before, so it is not completely idiot-proof yet, but should be OK for 99% of the time. This now also works for windows files (just HAD to test), where a space in the file name is legitimate.
Case closed. Lesson learned.
