External Ant tools: JFlex and Syntax Highlighting
I just finished making an Ant task for my syntax highlighting libraries:
http://ostermiller.org/syntax/
I also use JFlex which has an ant task. It does not appear to be listed in the external ant tools.
I am requesting that both of these tools be listed in the external ant tools list. The diff of the XML file follows.

Probably because we've not been told that it exists 8-)
I've modified your patch to not include contact information and will
try to get Rafal's permission before I put it in.

I have committed the changes, a cron job will update the site within
the next six hours (or so).

For the next time, unified (-u) or context (-c) diffs are the preferd
format.
