Okay now, so no need to talk to them.

hello, thank you very much...
it remains a doubt in my mind, if Forrest does not use make and friends, why freebsd has a port for this application?
here is what i did.., i have found a port for FreeBSD, i guess it fits better to the system...
I deactivated the enviroment variable JAVA_HOME by
#unsetenv JAVA_HOME
I guess the only thing i have to do is to set back the variable.. by #setenv JAVA_HOME /path/to/java
BUILD SUCCESSFUL

Set the environment variable:
FORREST_HOME=/usr/local/share/apache-forrest
and add ${FORREST_HOME}/bin to your PATH.
To build a site:
1) $ mkdir mysite; cd mysite
2) $ forrest seed
3) $ forrest
4) see results in ./build/site/index.html with your web browser
To avoid any issue with old classes being loaded, run a 'forrest clean'
in your project directory, after you upgraded to this version (0.7)
