Editor preferences summary [message #77437] Thu, 17 July 2003 20:03 Go to next message

All the places you can set (important) editor preferences:

Start with Window | Preferences.

* Workbench | Editors | Text Editor - line numbers, print margin,
displayed annotations, displayed tab width

* Ant | Editor - same

* Java | Editor | Appearance - same

* Java | Code Formatter | Style - the important "insert spaces for tabs"
setting

There does not seem to be a way to:
* set "insert spaces for tabs" for anything other than java source

* associate new file types - for example, Eclipse always wants to open
XML docs (other than build.xml) with an external browser rather than a
text editor.

True for editors that are part of the Eclipse SDK
