Hi Steve,

Thanks for the quick reply - I was not aware of that nuance of the use of the list
command, though it's there in the documentation once you know. However, when I
tried it against one of our project URLs, it returned a list of all the subfolders under it
with the latest revision of each. Parsing that in Ant would be tricky :-(. I tried the -N (-
-non-recursive) switch, but the list command won't take that.
