The files live somewhere in your project directory structure, right? As
long as you have a plugin that can handle them, you should be able to
just open them and Eclipse will pick the right editor (you can go to
Preferences > General > Editors > File Associations to configure the
editors and file extensions).
Eclipse comes with, obviously, plugins that handle "standard" file types
like Java source, Ant scripts, and others. You'll want to get the Web
Tools plugins (http://www.eclipse.org/webtools) to handle more files
like XML, JSP, etc.
HTH,

This gets to the root of the other problem I'm having. I started with an
existing application directory tree. When I started Eclipse, it asked me
to specify the root of my workspaces tree. I then created a project "from
an existing build.xml". As a result, my project directory tree is not my
application directory tree.
How am I supposed to deal with applications that I want to be buildable
and usable from outside of Eclipse?
