Ah, thanks. I was looking for plugin version information where plugins are managed. Most application about boxes don't include plugin version information, and most application plugin-management menus do, so it's a bit surprising for Eclipse to be the reverse. :) It seems to be 0.2.0STABLE001, whatever that last part means. >> 2.

Ah. There's nowhere where this seems to be documented, including the CCW section the install added to the Eclipse help browser. Thanks. >> 3.

But, yes, > CCW's docs are... thin... Browsing the same help section, I see a couple of things like one whole section that just says TODO, and also an item somewhere that ends with "(note:". I suppose we shouldn't expect too much of something whose version number is 0.2. In fact, I've seen version 2.0s of some products that were less usable (Windows, for one :)). The help browser responds sluggishly to wheel scroll, but snappily to dragging the scrollbar thumb around; but this looks like an Eclipse bug rather than a CCW bug, as it affects other help pages besides the CCW ones. Indeed, from the clicking noise it makes when links are clicked I suspect it's actually an embedded Internet Exploder browser pane (currently at a Windows box here), so it might even be an Internet Exploder bug. Er ... knowing that particular Microsoft product, "might even be" is an understatement; try "probably is". :) -- Protege: What is this seething mass of parentheses?! Master: Your father's Lisp REPL.
