delete task recursion ...PLease do answer ASAP if possible ...

Hi,
   I have to run this task 5-6 times in order to delete all directories
inside the current . Is there any way I can put this in a loop.
  I want to be able to remove all directories and there subdirectories
except those which are quoted inside the excludes task .How do I do it ?


<target name="build-clean-cvs" 
	        description="Removes residue of previous builds">
    		<echo message="Removing residue of previous builds"/>
    		
		<delete dir="." includeEmptyDirs="true" defaultexcludes="no"
excludes="build.xml"/>
    		
  	
	</target>

Regards,
Viraj Purang
