Hi everyone, Ant's Nest 1.7 has just been released at http://antsnest.sourceforge.net and is a major update from the last time I spoke on this list. For those that weren't around last time, Ant's Nest is a GUI that helps a user create/edit a build file. It's aim is to help the user as much as possible whilst not slowing down the experienced user, with standard features such as auto-complete mixed with the new Ant Beans system; all complimented with a drag 'n' drop interface.
It's totally free and open-source, and I'm very keen for people's opinions on it, as last time your feedback was incredibly useful. But instead of clogging up this list, can you send your criticisms/views to the contact details supplied on the web page. I hope the editor proves helpful to some people, as my whole project concluded that creating a build file is not as straightforward as it could be; the innovator of Ant himself has even conceded the use of XML is not the most human-friendly approach, and it's well known most Ant 'editors' are in fact XML editors with an auto-complete function. Hope to hear from you soon, Chris :-p
