<section name="Maven Console">
<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 set of comma-separated goals) to execute.
</p>
<source>clean,jar:jar</source>
<p>
You can press enter to re-run the last successful goal which is
displayed in the prompt.
</p>
<p>
To change a property on the fly, assign it like so:
</p>
<source>maven.test.skip=true</source>
<p>
To check the current value of a property, start the command with <code>=</code>:
</p>
<source>=maven.compile.source</source>
<p>
For more information on the functionality provided by this plugin,
please see the <a href="goals.html">Goals</a> document.
</p>
<p>
You can customize some features with
<a href="properties.html">properties</a>.
