      <p>
        This plugin provides an interactive environment for executing
        Maven goals for a project. This cuts down on the JVM and Maven
        start-up times allowing for lightning-fast repetitive execution
        of Maven.
      </p>
      <p>
        The console simply loads the current project.xml and waits for
        the user to supply a goal (or other command) to execute. The
        following commands are currently implemented:
        <ul>
          <li>help - displays the valid commands for the console</li>
          <li>list - lists valid goals for the loaded project</li>
        </ul>
      </p>
      <p> 
        For more information on the functionality provided by this plugin,
        please see the <a href="goals.html">Goals</a> document.
