Hi!

I'm running Eclipse Neon on Win7.
I installed DLTK ShellEd IDE 5.6 from the update site. The editor shows, syntax highlighting works.

I don't see any shell completion or man page integration though. When I hover over almost anything in my bash file, I get an empty tooltip.
Under Preferences / Shell Script / Interpreters, I added my cygwin bash.exe. I also tried winbash [1], no difference.

Any ideas?
Thanks!
Felix

I started Eclipse with -debug -consolelog to see what's going on.
Upon hovering over a keyword in a shell script, an error would show up stating that the man executable can't be found at /usr/bin/man -- duh. So I dug through the Eclipse preferences and noticed the new Preference Page "Man pages". There, I put the cygwin man.exe (C:\cygwin64\bin\man.exe).

Now the error is gone, but still nothing shows up.

The setup is:
Preferences / Man pages / Man executable path: C:\cygwin64\bin\man.exe
Preferences / Shell Script / Interpreters / Interpreter executable: C:\cygwin64\bin\bash.exe
Preferences / Shell Script / Interpreters / Interpreter system libraries: C:\cygwin64\bin
