 Gnat and Ant have description attributes associated with each target that get printed out when using the "list targets" command line (-T or -p for Gant, -p for Ant). Gradle's -t option simply lists the tasks and dependencies (which is great) but definitely needs a description field. Each createTask should allow for a description key in the map, for example: createTask ( 'name' , description: 'Description of the task.' ) { . . . }  |

 It works for me  I do think the output from "gradle -t" could be better formatted but I don't have any constructive suggestions immediately. But this is for the mailing list.  |
