Hello,

I work on many many projects using eclipse, in a wide variety of
languages. Most common being PHP and C/C++. I installed PDT and noticed I
am forced to create "projects" in order to view files etc. which liters my
subversion respo repositories itories with some eclipse specific files
etc. I Know I could commit and work around this but here is my idea:

I can instead of having "Project Explorer" have "File Explorer" where I
just browse my file systems tree, opening whatever files I may need. Some
may be to a library in a completely different repository then I might need
to edit some C somewhere, then finally a web interface, all in different
repos perhaps even using different source control (git, svn, cvs).

Basically I just want to remove the coupling to projects, its okay if I
lose some features I just want to be able to quickly edit files with
decent syntax highlighting, which surprisingly is hard to find these days
(many of the linux ide/editors are just bad).

I know this chances it less from a IDE to a Editor... and if someone has a
suggestions on workflow/managing a variety of projects let me know. I
basically have /home/chris/source/(30-60 directories) some served through
apache locally, others nightly builds synced, etc.

I appreciate any ideas, and sorry for the rather long email.

-Chris
