AW: echo foo.txt, like "cat foo.txt"

[Jan.Materne]

or 
<concat><fileset dir="dirToFile" includes="FILE"/></concat>

Personally I use a macrodef´d version:

<project name="common-define-print">
    <macrodef name="print">
        <attribute name="file"/>
        <sequential>
            <concat taskname="print"><fileset dir="." 
includes="@{file}"/></concat>
        </sequential>
    </macrodef>
</project>


<project>
    <import file"=common/define-print.xml"/>
    <print file="foo.txt"/>
</project>

p.s. 
maybe I should post my predefined snippets somewhere :)
