step 3 or so a modal dialog prevents you from reading further to fill in
the stuff so you can dismiss the modal dialog...This seems to be a
general problem w/eclipse in that most modal dialogs are in motif speak
are 'full application modal' thus blocking all windows in the
application..... I mean duhhhyah! as a clue to how it should be done I
would point you to QTDesigner/QTAssistant methodology. Anyone that has
done GUIs knows that full app modal dialogs are a primitive hack to make
life easier for the programmer.
