Status of Ant

[Jerry Haltom]

Ant, the command line tool, needs to be in main, somehow.

What is there that is keeping this from happening? The following .jar
files are in the contrib ant package:

/usr/share/ant/lib/ant-antlr.jar
/usr/share/ant/lib/ant-apache-bcel.jar
/usr/share/ant/lib/ant-apache-bsf.jar
/usr/share/ant/lib/ant-apache-log4j.jar
/usr/share/ant/lib/ant-apache-oro.jar
/usr/share/ant/lib/ant-apache-regexp.jar
/usr/share/ant/lib/ant-commons-logging.jar
/usr/share/ant/lib/ant-javamail.jar
/usr/share/ant/lib/ant-jdepend.jar
/usr/share/ant/lib/ant-launcher.jar
/usr/share/ant/lib/ant-nodeps.jar
/usr/share/ant/lib/ant-swing.jar
/usr/share/ant/lib/ant.jar
/usr/share/ant/lib/ant-apache-resolver.jar
/usr/share/ant/lib/ant-bootstrap.jar
/usr/share/ant/lib/ant-commons-net.jar
/usr/share/ant/lib/ant-trax.jar
/usr/share/ant/lib/ant-junit.jar

Why are these not in main?

I have heard rumors about a sound task, which won't work properly. If
these rumors are true (which I will go confirm in a minute), I seriously
recommend we patch out sound, or make it reflection based.

I am going to set about this mission, right now. Any thing I need to
know, please tell me.
