Emacs mode in Eclipse

If you are an Emacs user and find yourself in Eclipse 3.1, do yourself a favor and follow these directions:

  1. Goto Window-> Preferences
  2. Choose General, then Keys underneath it
  3. Choose the Modify Tab. On the Scheme drop-down, choose Emacs

Now you can do C-p, C-k, etc. to your heart’s content. Note that now C-space is now M-/ — like you would expect it to be. You, dear Emacs user, will now find that life is much better.
