ANT input (inputHandler) support?

I'm on IDEA 1024 on OSX 10.3, and I'm trying to use the ]]> task in ANT within IDEA....to no avail.

Does IDEA provide its own inputHandler for obtaining input from the user, or is there a way to get a dialog for entering text during a build rather than trying to get it from the console?

My build works from command line, but locks up inside of IDEA.

Thanks,

Vince
