NAME

       NAnt - .NET build tool similar to Ant

SYNOPOSIS

       nant [OPTIONS] <target> ...

DESCRIPTION

       NAnt  is  a  .Net  build tool similar to Ant.  The build environment is
       configured using an XML file and extended  using  .Net  classes  rather
       than  executing  separate shell-based commands.  Each task is run by an
       object that implements a particular Task interface.
