Small light and simple. Agreed.

I would feel a lot better spending my spare time on such a thing if I knew
people desired it.

I've thought of doing one but alas time!. That is pretty close to the
exact feature set I came up with.  Something small and light.  It would
be a pretty cool project for somebody who had some time and wanted to
learn Windows Forms and C#.

Is there any interest in an NAnt GUI to facilitate the launch of build
scripts? I am as good as the next guy at writing batch files but some
people work better with GUIs.

Possible Features:
  Associating the GUI with .build files in Explorer
  Allow loading build files from a file dialog. 
  On load of a build file the app would parse the xml looking for
targets to invoke. 
  Build logs could be displayed, scrollable, and savable. 
  A grid could be present that accepts name/value pairs for input
parameters to builds.
  Execution and property parameters could be saved to a standalone
buildfile.

This mail was inspired by a lot of push back from developers daunted by
command line programs. I am a bit shy of bandwidth just now so I just
wanted to post a "what if" to see if anyone else had input.
