Ant Log File Syntax Highlighting
I spend a lot of time digging through Ant logs in text editors, as I'm
sure we all do.
I'm wondering if there exists a syntax highlighting definition file that
would, for instance, add style to the targets or tasks. I think it
would make them much easier to read.
Does anyone know if something like this exists?
Thanks,
-Nathan

The easiest thing is using a Log4J logger and use existing Log4J
"viewers".

Yes indeed,
I have done that recently.
Not very hard, but requires Xml task <http://www.oopsconsultancy.com/software/xmltask/>

I have seen this type of functionality developed in two different
companies as part of company specific build software but never as open
source tool.
In both cases as far as I can remember ant logs are captured in XML
format, and XSLT is used to do the desired formatting.

I've used one with TextPad several years ago (available through TextPad's
extras downloads). There also seems to be something of the sort built into
Eclipse, but I haven't tried to extract it for use with any other editor.
