some ideas: the first time I used ant I loved it but as soon as i asked it to do anything complex it became a major pain, imo.
when I was helping harbs with TLF it took me a week and a lot of patience to get it setup. I understand why there are build engineers now. I'm really hesitant to try and make ant work with any project. but for people like me, and others the process has to be easier to set up. I'm not saying that's for you to do but I think it would be better to use actionscript instead. why not create an AIR app? use as3 to check for environment variables, ask for directories, use those with the file class to copy things where they need to go. have a build button. maybe it's not possible. idk. I'm not saying this is for you to do but if install and run was an as3 app any of us could debug it and even write parts if it. just an idea. in fact, I might be able to help on it. I'll see if I can get something started this week if there's interest. On Feb 15, 2016 2:38 PM, "Alex Harui" <aha...@adobe.com> wrote: > I have not seen anyone offer to make a fix.
