is removes some of the expressive power that is inherent in being
able to construct a shell command such as
<nobr><code>`find . -name foo -exec rm {}`</code></nobr>, but it
gives you the ability to be cross-platform--to work anywhere and
everywhere. And
hey, if you really need to execute a shell command, Ant has an
<code>&lt;exec&gt;</code> task that
allows different commands to be executed based on the OS it is executing
on.</p>
