[PATCH] runant.py should use ant-launcher.jar

           Summary: [PATCH] runant.py should use ant-launcher.jar
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.6Alpha (nightly)
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: Other
         Component: Wrapper scripts
        AssignedTo: dev@ant.apache.org
        ReportedBy: knut@paranor.ch


As of version 1.6 Ant sets up the classpath from within Java before actually 
starting Ant.  The wrapper scripts just have to include the ant-launcher.jar 
and run the class org.apache.tools.ant.launch.Launcher (or even use the -jar 
switch).

The Unix and Windows scripts have been adapted, but the other scripts, 
including the Python runant.py, not.

Attached is a patch for runant.py which makes the script:

 - better match the structure of the 'ant' script
 - insert the -Djikes.class.path in the right place (not as system property)
 - use 4 spaces instead of TAB indentation
 - assume ANT_HOME is the parent directory of the directory the script is in if 
the environment variable isn't set

This last change makes it possible to use runant.py on OpenVMS.
