Two errors: the extra semicolon after XMLSchema-instance, and you do 
need to use the '&amp;' construction instead of '&'.  See attached.

(I'm not sure why you need & at all; unless it allows the bash shell to 
exit, where otherwise it would hang around?)

FWIW, I've never tested run2 with multibyte UTF-8, so...you might be 
better off setting the encoding to us-ascii.
