Cool, so should I bother with the replace task? One of the tasks modes
is NAnt and Regex (as well as simple text substitution). The begin and
end token attributes wouldn't make sense in that case and it would
(possibly) be better to do something like:
<filtersets>
<filterset>
<propertyfilter>
<propertyset>
<exclude
property="nant.project.basedir" />
</propertyset>
</propertyfilter>
</filterset>
</filtersets>
This means search on all ${...} tokens and replace them with the
matching property except the nant.project.basedir property.
