SpringSource Tool Suite

Getting a bit tired of the whole command line thing. Makes it slightly easier, but still a bit hard to follow in places.

Time to move on to the SpringSource Tool Suite and see how the roo/surf plugins/addons in relation to making things easier.

The first, almost immediate difference I notice is that deploying (and more importantly REdeploying) out to the tomcat server is done with a minimum of hassle. Made a quick change to the footer, redeployed, and Bob's your Auntie May, it worked. No errors generated, no confusing messages, it just worked!

The next stage is to see how much more quickly I can go through the tutorials for Chapter 2 before I come across some other problems.
