Keyword substitution. Input file is written to output file. Do not make input file same as output file. Keywords in input files look like this: @foo@. See the docs for the setKeys method to understand how to do the substitutions.
Since:Ant 1.1
Deprecated:KeySubst is deprecated since Ant 1.1. Use Filter + Copy instead.
