33 <para>The <application>Apache Ant</application> package is a
34 <application>Java</application>-based build tool. In theory, it is kind of like
35 <command>make</command>, but without <command>make</command>'s wrinkles.
36 Ant is different. Instead of a model where it is extended with shell-based commands,
37 Ant is extended using <application>Java</application> classes. Instead of writing
38 shell commands, the configuration files are XML-based, calling out a target tree where
39 various tasks get executed. Each task is run by an object that implements a
40 particular task interface.</para>
