Neat Droplet Ant Trick for Windows...

Hi all,

Not sure if this is a well known thing, but I thought I might add it to the
FAQ or something.  Basically, on windows you can take a batch file with the
text: 

ant -f example-build.xml -Dsrc.file=%1

Then, if you drag a file on top of the batch file and let it go, it replaces
the %1 with the path of the file, allowing you to create Ant tasks that
behave as droplets!
