It is probably trivial but i coulnd't find the answer in FAQ or newcomer.

I created a plugin-text editor for .paf files
When i selected in file>open file> browse test.paf
the file open in the editor but how can i know, in the plugin, what is the
file/path of that file?
I read info about how to create IFile in order to save it somewhere else
but how do i get the IFile currently called onto the plugin.
Thanks
Xavier

From within your editor (that being your EditorPart subclass), you can
probably just do...

IFile inputFile = ((IFileEditorInput) getEditorInput()).getFile();

Is this what you want?
