.ant-global.properties and pluto.dir

portletUnit depends upon Pluto http://portals.apache.org/pluto/ and needs to know where you have installed it. Do this by setting pluto.dir to the directory where pluto is installed. When the ant script fails it will tell you where your .ant-global.properties files should be.

There is also an ant target: showhome, which shows where this file should be and what is in it.
