Don't use Symfoclipse :-)

Seriously, its a lot easier t manage if you just make your own external 
tool definition. I have mine set up to point to ${project_loc}/symfony 
(ie. ./symfony) taking one argument - ${string_prompt}

I just hit my hot key and type out my command in the dialog, and hit 
enter. No right clicking on a certain directory or remembering which 
directory serves as the context for which task... And one less plugin 
which, on my dinosaur of a G4, is a good thing :-)

I do like its YAML editor though...
