Actually, on some systems there's an object name issue. I've seen many 
cases on Windows, and some on OS X, where ">" and "<" cannot be used in 
a filename, and therefore any object with those characters in the name 
will not create. I've recommended the [expr~] alternative for a long 
time now.

best,
d.
