Jaimie,

The "Getting Started" instructions appear to show NAnt building itself, but IMHO that's just an example. The "Installation" section says to unzip the zip file into a folder and you're ready to go.

You should be able to run this out of the box:

<project name="test" default="testEcho">
        <target name="testEcho">
                <echo>Hello World</echo>
        </target>
</project>

Paste that into a "test.build" file in an empty directory and call "nant" in a console from that directory.

Ok I deleted everything and tried from scratch with .84.  I might just be
missing something stupid.  All the docs mention that I have to build then
install NANT.

I get the follow:

It was my understanding that before I can use NANT I have to build it then
install it.  Is this correct?

....


C:\nant>bin\nant
NAnt 0.85 (Build 0.85.1759.0; net-1.0.win32; nightly; 25/10/2004)



This looks to me like you already have a working copy. If you can use NAnt to build NAnt, it already works and you don't need to build it yourself. Feel free to work through it as a learning exercise, though. I've learned a lot over the years that way.
