+ I'm running windows 2000 Professional on an intel P3.
+
+ I downloaded and installed ant 1.2 binary distribution exactly according to the documantation except that I added c:\ant\bin\ to my path instead of %ANT_HOME\bin\
+
+ when I run ant (c:\>ant) I get a java usage message.
+ C:\> ant
+ Usage: java [-options] class [args...]
+ (to execute a class)
+ or java -jar [-options] jarfile [args...]
+ (to execute a jar file)
+
+ where options include:
+ -cp -classpath <directories and zip/jar files separated by ;>
+ set search path for application classes and resources
+ -D<name>=<value>
+ set a system property
+ -verbose[:class|gc|jni]
+ enable verbose output
+ -version print product version
+ -? -help print this help message
+ -X print help on non-standard options
+
+ What gives?
