Yes, "NetWare" is the correct capitalization.
I'll get back to you on the runant.pl scripts. I went in and made it portable
to NetWare, but it seems like it didn't serve the exact same purpose as
bootstrap.bat or even runAnt.bat. (Though it is very similar to this).
Actually, it looks like it is meant to be the equivalent of ant.bat itself.
As for cross-platformness, I'd like to achieve this if possible. And, NetWare
doesn't have a recursive delete, so I have incentive to achieve this strictly
using perl.

Don't worry.

There already is a runant.pl that could replace ant.bat - bootstrap
may be a bit more difficult than that (given the problems you
describe).

If you brand it as "NetWare Perl", you could simply use system("") -
if NetWare has an OS command to recursively remove directories. I
don't think you need to pay too much attention to portability in the
scripts that are platform specific by definition.
BTW, is NetWare the correct capitalization (just showing my ignorance,
I know). If so, condition.html should be patched.
