Importing Posit into Eclipse

Download the Posit source code from Mercurial to somewhere you'll remember.
Remember to change the branch
Open Eclipse
Go to File -> Import
Under "General", click on "Existing Projects into Workspace"
Hit Next
Browse your workspace directory and find the Posit project folder you downloaded with Mercurial
Check the "Copy projects into workspace" box
Click Finish
You may have to wait a while. There is a status animation in the lower right of Eclipse - wait until it is done!

Please Note: If you have issues running the program try:

Restarting Eclipse a couple of times
Deleting any other projects from the "Package Explorer" toolbar (they will not delete from the workspace directory)

Please keep posting solutions if you run into any other problems
