I didn't knew that. However, I think I will use -propertyfile option, because in my custom task (i am writng ant task for jazzy spell checker) I have prompts like this: StringBuffer prompt = new StringBuffer(); prompt.append("Press C/c to correct,\n\t"); prompt.append("C!/c! to correct and replace all occurrences,\n\t"); prompt.append("I/i or Enter to ignore,\n\t"); prompt.append("I!/i! or Enter to ignore all occurences,\n\t"); prompt.append("or A/a to add to the dictionary:"); input.setMessage(prompt.toString()); String spellChoice = "spell.choice"+(spellChoiceId++); input.setAddproperty(spellChoice); So the prompts contains lots of spaces and lots of new lines "\n" so it is possible but very ugly to escape them in tje properties file.
