Diane, I don't want to always be disagreeing with you, but I don't see what
is the problem with the current output format. I think that when the tasks
in a target produce some output, it is nice to have some whitespace before
the next target. Perhaps if there is no output from the tasks, we could skip
the blank lines. I have made a quick change which produces this output when
building ant.

Buildfile: build.xml
prepare:
check_for_optional_packages:
compile:
  [copydir] Copying 2 files to F:\Projects\Jakarta\build\ant\classes

jar:
      [jar] Building jar: F:\Projects\Jakarta\build\ant\lib\ant.jar

main:
javadocs:
    [mkdir] Created dir: F:\Projects\Jakarta\build\ant\javadocs
  [javadoc] Generating Javadoc
                ...


Would that meet your needs?

Conor
