Useful Eclipse Plugins
Version 122.1 by Kieran Kelleher on 2007/07/12 14:02
Introduction
The functionality of Eclipse can be extended with more plugins and these are often free and sometimes open source. They can usually be installed the same way as you first installed WOLips. Simply get the appropriate update "Update URL" for the plugin (or sometimes a selection of plugins are available from the author), create a remote update site and install. The remote update site URL can usually be found somewhere in the documentation and often is more convenient that downloading the files and installing from HD.
Of course, if you are reading this, it goes without saying that WOLips is the most useful plugin of all
