I was looking through the online Ant manual recently, looking for
something like <input>, but which would display either an "open" or
"save" dialog, i.e. what you typically see if you choose "File: Open..."
or "File: Save..." in an application. Alas, I found no such task, so I
instead wrote tasks and targets which would use <input> and would ask
the user to type paths: not as user-friendly...
Has this sort of task ever been considered as an addition to Ant?
(I realize Ant can't assume it's running on a machine with a display,
mouse, etc.; i.e. that it may find itself on a "headless" computer. But
in that case this proposed <input> variation would resort to a
stdout/stdout-based prompting...)
Thanks in advance,
Rich Wagner
