Re: [ jEdit-users ] Attempt at ProjectViewer/Ant integration...

Brian,

   This is very cool.  I hadn't played with the project viewer before this 
but this made me interested.  I'm not real impressed with the project viewer 
as a whole but the ant target stuff is very nice.  You could technically 
break it off as a plugin all on its own.
