I've stumbled or ANT a couple of times but never really figured out what
it really is. Can someone give me a clue on that by not telling me it's
a build tool. So what exactly is a build tool? Why do I need one whe I
can compile eveything i write with javac, either explicit och implicit
by using some fancy IDE?

Thanks!
