57 -If you open a lot of projects at the same time, you'll sometime find yourself editing a few Session.java or localizable.strings files at the same time. How can you see which file from what project you are editing? There is a simple trick for that: in the Package Explorer window, click on the icon with the two arrows on it. From now on, if you select another file in the editor window, you'll be directed to that file in the project in Package Explorer.
47 +Normally you select the project in the package explorer, goto to the contextual menu (via right click), then click Run WOApplication. you can also go to the Run menu. Or to the Run icon.

49 +Don't suppose you are running the app you are running because you selected the project and pressed the run button in the toolbar. It will run the last application you have run, no matter what you have selected in the package explorer. You have to do a "run as", select your program and then you might get your app.

97 -cmd-space= completion, also known as content assist. This one screws up with the standard settings for Spotlight, which are also cmd-space. Some have tried to move cmd-space to something else in Eclipse, but that does not seems to be picked up everywhere. Better replace Spotlight to something else.
