"magic build" is 'old construct" (I need to update some docs).
Run "magic" in tools/magic instead.

Quick Explaination of command-line formats;

"magic" [plugin "." method] | [plugin "."] | method | @file

Examples;
magic     -    same as "magic @magic.sequence"
magic jar.install   -   Execute the install() method in the jar plugin.
magic build  -  Execute the build() method in the magic.bsh in current dir.
magic clean.   -   Execute the clean() method in the clean plugin.

magic @release.sequence  -  Execute the methods in directories, listed in the 
file

File Format;
Each line consist of a "directory" and one or many 'methods' in the same style 
as the command-line. If there are no methods listed, i.e. only a directory, 
the "magic.properties" file is read from that directory.
Examples;
---------------
. jar.install  
----------------
api
impl
----------------

I hope this enough to get going...
