Are there any GUI tools for editing or launching Ant build files?

Erik Hatcher Antidote is a subproject at Jakarta that does this. Here's the README:

You'll probably have to CVS to Jakarta to grab it. I'm not sure if there
are binaries available anywhere.
Also, NetBeans (http://www.netbeans.org) has a fairly slick UI for editing, and of course launching,
build.xml files (except it really bugs me that it alphabetizes the XML
attributes - I want 'name' to be the first attribute, not 'depends' on
target elements!).
jEdit has AntFarm - a very nice front-end to Ant, not to mention its the coolest editor ever.
