Oh, it's in "Optional Tasks": what does that mean? Only with the ant
optional jar? How do I know someone will have that who tries to use
my build file? Why is it optional? Which Ant developer made the
arbitrary decision that this "echoproperties" gem should be "optional"
instead of "core"?
The documentation is IMPOSSIBLE TO NAVIGATE. I wish that I'd saved
myself the time and effort to write this because Ant's documentation
was written and organized by a 4 year old. Thanks for making me angrier.
Maybe the intent is to motivate you to buy a book on Ant - the JBoss
principle of making crappy documentation available for free, so that
you'll get sucked in and then have to pay for something better. I think
somebody wrote one on Ant a while ago... ;-)
