Hi Everyone!

I've found all Jim's tutorials that I had combined into a single document.
The document is attached.

Okay! I was pretty sure that I had saved these goodies. Here is the first
with all credit to Jim.

I'm going to attempt a small tutorial approach for getting blind programmers
up to speed on Eclipse and then ultimately Java.... This is the first time
that I've attempted such but I do have lots of teaching behind me, so bare
with it and me.

Eclipse IDE's Workspace.

Essentially you can place all of your projects into a neat self contained
working area known as the Work Space. Essentially what you have is a folder
structure such as C:\Work Space....

With in the WS will be many projects but for this example we will use a
single project called "Vehicle....

So structurally it would be C:\Work Space\Vehicle\ and so on.

Now we need to be able to set up the ws in the first place:

If your Eclipse is at the root of C:; open the file at 

c:\Eclipse\Configuration\.settings\org.eclipse.ui.ide.prefs

If you right click the file and select the option Open With.... locate
Notepad and check the control that asks if you want to open this file next
time with Notepad....

Essentially what you have opened is a text file....

Locate the entry "SHOW_WORKSPACE_SELECTION_DIALOG=false", change the false
to true and resave the file.

Next reopen the Eclipse editor. Note you will be prompted to select a Work
Space... You can either brows for the Ws or manually enter it...

Do not select the option to use the Work Space as the default for all
projects. Select OK and there you have your first Work Space.
