Since I (Daniel) uses neither Eclipse nor any other Java IDE, I have realised the painful way how great the little things IDE's do are. I am not talking about syntax highlighting, or dynamic intelligent "write half the code for me" features. No, I'm thinking about building and deployment, managing file paths, environment variables and tool chains, etc.
I hope Ant will do the trick for me, once I get all the paths set up in a nice, clean way. When that is working it shouldn't be difficult to write some small scripts to consolidate everything into a single "build the code and show me the result" script, like the Eclipse command "Run" I guess.
