    "shell": true,
    "file_regex": "^(...*?):([0-9]*):?([0-9]*)",
    "working_dir": "$file_path",
    "selector": "source.java",
    "encoding": "GBK",
    "variants": [
        {
            "name": "Terminal",
            "cmd": ["javac", "$file_name", "&&", "start","cmd", "/k", "java", "$file_base_name"],
            "shell_cmd": "",
