Hi,

there are two features I've been missing from the exec task. And
judging from the bugtrack, I'm not the only person needing them. Those
two are:
- ability to redirect the standard input *(some console tools expect
data to be piped)
- ability to silence the logging output (when a tool prints 100K data
that is redirected to a file, printing to the console is a huge
slowdown)

The attached patch adds two attributes to the exec task: input and
quiet. Please consult the source for documentation.

Please comment, or, if everything is fine, commit.

Yours,

Leszek Ciesielski
