Ant: TAR and GZIP task

You can create an ant task called, tar task, to compress a directory instead of manually creating the tar in command line.
http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/tar.html Insert below text in your build.xml file for your project:
<tar destfile="${dist}/manual.tar" basedir="htdocs/manual"/>
<gzip destfile="${dist}/manual.tar.gz" src="${dist}/manual.tar"/>

My favorite quotations..


“A man should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.”  by Robert A. Heinlein
