String translation/regex
I have a property thats set to "5.0.019" for a version number, but cvs tags
don't allow .'s, is there a way to do a regex and change all the .'s to _'s
from ant?

This is actually one of the better uses of <script> around. Again, to
clarify - I dislike <script> when its used to solve a problem that should be
solved in some more elegant way. Replacing and "_" with a ".", besides
<replaceregexp> (which isn't available in a released version yet) is
perfectly cool with me.
Also, post 1.4.1 release a modification was made to <script> so that
"project" can be used instead of "<project name>". It makes having
re-usable script blocks among build files with different project names
possible. (And I am responsible for that change, thank you very much!)

The <script> task comes with the standard optional tasks jar-file -- what
you don't have is the BSF and Rhino jars. You can either pick up the src
and build bsf.jar yourself (comes with a build.xml file), and have it
support as many of the supported languages as you want/need, or I can send
you mine, which was only compiled to handle Rhino (since that's all I felt
like dealing with :) I can send you the js.jar file as well, or you can
visit the Rhino site and pick it up there.

This looks it'll do me, where does one find the script tag? Its not in
optional/standard so I assume its another independant jar I need?
Actually, does it have any tasks for validating javascript in jsp pages?
Would be great to be able to trap any errors/problems in there before doing
a dist...

Or if you don't want to deal with reading and writing a file (and want to
see Erik cringe :) --
<property name="version" value="5.0.019"/>
<target name="setTag">
<script language="javascript"> <![CDATA[
cvstag = projname.getProperty("version").replace('.', '_');
projname.setProperty("cvstag", cvstag);
]]></script>
<echo message="cvstag = ${cvstag}"/>
</target>
