OK. I have resolved that Ant will not do this properly. However, this can
be done in a batch file. So now the question I have is, how do I get a
newline with the <echo> task?
<target name="write_bat">
<echo file="c:\antdir\test.bat" message="pushd \\server\testdir\"/>
<echo file="c:\antdir\test.bat" append="Yes" message="cd"/>
<echo file="c:\antdir\test.bat" append="Yes" message="popd"/>
</target>
However the batch file (test.bat) looks like:
pushd \\server\testdir\cdpopd
I want the file to have the commands on separate lines. \n and <br> don't
work with echo.
