One of the problems with playing with a new platform is getting things they way you are used to them. Linux is somewhat easier than Windows in that respect, but using Eclipse has at least provided a level playing field and now that I've got it tidied up and working on the Vista64 box ( has to use w32 jave to run ;) ) I can now get around some of the little niggles.

Files that are common to windows and linux will naturally follow linux rules on new line, so can't be displayed in 'notepad', and I've had to switch some of the windows defaults to get 'wordpad' used instead. I had forgotten to switch the wrap to ruler off which was causing a little confusion with white space, but once I get Eclipse configured to the windows php framework the problem will go away. Being used to 'notepad' I kept opening files the wrong way at first, although some files do actually display correctly in notepad.

Bottom line - rather than reinventing the wheel - is anybody else actually using Eclipse and has a simple set-up guide for how they have configured things? Ideally for windows, but I'd like to pull this up on the Linux boxes as well. If I'm going to have to start working on extension code it's easier on the linux box anyway and then I can cross test on windows.
