Hi,

It it possible to select a set of files in eclipse and be able to access the
list when running an external tool? The ${resource_loc} value only contains
the first file selected.

John.

I am searching for the same answer. I've tried about everything, no luck.

I need this, as I have an external tool that manipulates a set of files, and without it the user has to select the items one by one.

I'm going to look into writing a plug-in to add such a variable...
