Can I just say what a great tool eclipse is! So many cool little nice
things in it - I suspect it will be the vi of 21st century - everytime you
watch somebody use it you learn something new. Glad that there is a tips
and tricks section in the help
After having used it for a bit I have a few requests
- square cut copy and paste (alt drag in vs.net)
- a decent regex aware search and replace (like vs.net)
- a simple find in files (I cant understand the current search at all)
- file>open (the whole project based, dont worry about the file system
thing gets a lot of getting used to)
- shortcut key for last ant build
- quick fix (cool or what) on the right click menu when pointing at an
error
For the regex replace and 'find in files' I run with vs.net open as well
as eclipse

Select Search > File Search (or press Ctrl-H and make sure the File Search
tab is selected). This can do a textual search of every file in your
workspace or project or working set. It will be slower than the Java indexed
searches of course. BTW, newer 3.0 builds have a regular expression checkbox
you can turn on.
Also look at www.cygwin.com if you need a grep on Windows. Also Windows
Exporer has a find in files capability.
For global replaces, honestly I think once you get hooked on Eclipse's
refactoring you will rarely want to do that. Still it would be good to have
just in case so open a bugzilla or vote for one if it's already there..

Navigate > Open Resource (or Ctrl-Shift-R). Start typing a filename to
narrow down the list.

Window > Preferences > Workbench > Keys. Pick category: Run, name: Run Last
Launched External Tool. Under Key Sequence click in the Name field, and
press the key sequence of your choice (I suggest Ctrl-Shift-F11). Click Add.
OK.

Save the file. Open the Problems view (Tasks in 2.1), right click on the
error message, and there should be a Quick Fix menu item. If it's grayed out
then no Quick Fix is available, thanks for playing.
Or click on the offending code in the editor and press Ctrl-1 (that's a
number one).
Or double-click on the lightbulb.

Yes - that sounds about right to me ;-)
