[Fwd: project welcome screen]

First of all, a hearty alopogy to all for complaining about decisions 
being made on private threads and then doing the same thing myelf :-)

Here's the proposal I sent out yesterday and a revised version I sent 
out this morning. The screenshot still has the old text in it. Here's 
the current text, just to be clear:

Creating a Project
==================
To create a project, Choose Project > New > Project. You can create an 
empty Java project or a project from existing Java source.

[Create New Project]


Adding Source Files to a Project
================================
To add existing source directories to the project, right-click the 
Sources node and choose Add. Any Java packages in the source directory 
appear under the Packages node. Any other directories appear as source 
directories under the Sources node.

To create new Java files, right-click any package or source directory 
and choose from the New menu.

[Add Source Directory]


Building a Project
==================
You control your project's build process using build targets. For 
example, the Compiled Classes build target compiles all the classes in 
your project. To build your project, choose Build > Build Active Project.

You make a project active by right-clicking its project node and 
choosing Set Active.

You can also add steps to your build process, like creating a JAR file, 
by adding build targets. To add a build target, select the project and 
choose Project > New > Build Target.

[Add a Build Target]


Running a Project
=================
To run a project, first create a run profile in which you specify the 
project's Main class and other execution settings. To edit and create 
run profiles, choose Run > Run Profiles > Edit Profiles.

Once you have created a run profile, choose Run > Run Active Project to 
run the project.

[Edit Run Profiles]
