RE: Magic Eclipse target

Sorry for not posting all this at once. I'm discovering as I move along.

I also noticed that, to get rid of some of the annoying error messages in
the "external tools" dialog, it is possible to declare the Magic tasks and
types.

I am not claiming to have looked into this thoroughly, but for anyone who's
interested, you can add the tasks via the Eclipse GUI by going to Window -->
Preferenced --> Ant --> Runtime --> Tasks (or Types).


Or, you can manually edit the file org.eclipse.ant.core.prefs in the the
folder
${eclipse.home}/workspace/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.core.runtime/.setti
ngs/.


Mine looks something like this:
