Hi Cameron,

thanks for the changes und hints. Everything works fine now. To build the 
several single jar-files I used the dist-zip target mentioned in the help, 
missing somehow the "jars"-Target (so there the forrest- and the svn-problem 
occurs).
Now using the jars-, all-jar- and javadoc-targets, I get everything I need 
without any problems.

Perhaps you can update the "help"-target with the jars-Target to make it easier 
to find this target without scanning the whole buildfile.

Thanks

Florian

Hmm, I thought I had written it so that if svn were missing it would
still build ok (just not update the revision number in Squiggle’s splash
screen).  I’ve just committed a change to build.xml, so it won’t fail if
svn is not installed.  Give it a try.

Without the command line svn installed, it’d be difficult to determine
the revision of the checked out copy.

The documentation does now require Forrest to build.  What target are
you using to build?  Both “jars” and “all-jar” shouldn’t trigger the
building of the documentation.
