Thanks. I thought about trying to add some 'launch eclipse' target but 
didn't think the effort would be worth it. You can launch Eclipse 
without too much effort though from Java so if anyone wants to debug 
Eclipse with only one instance running this would be the way about it I 
think.

Never used maven. Its exact purpose always confused me. Has one of those 
websites that has a lot of information of which doesn't make sense 
unless your familiar with the product or a similar one. What advatage 
would maven provide over ant though? Maven always seemed to be a 'build 
tool + more' to me and I'm not sure if we need the + more?
