I have just started using Eclipse for C development under Linux. I have extensive experience with MyEclipse, but little with Eclipse. I want to import some existing C (a couple C files, an include file, and a Makefile) into an Eclipse project. I am using Eclipse 3.8. I have yet to find instructions on this that actually work!

If it's an existing project, the way I do it is to copy the files into it from the file system then refresh the project.

If it's a new project, use File -> Import -> C/C++ -> Existing code as a Makefile Project
