Hi,
Thanks for the explanation. What I'm trying to do is have an embedded python
console (using Jython). I'm printing a python prompt (>>>) using
System.out.print() then waiting for user input. Is there any other way I
could do this using Ant (without having to go into the internals of Ant)?
Thanks!
Robert
