Installing Packages (on iqaluk)
This section provides an example of installing two packages into eclipse related to fortran programming. Many other packages can similarly be installed. Since the eclipse download repository is external to the sharcnet network, package installation must be done on iqaluk or a viz station and not on a devel node. Once the required addon packages are installed however, they are available on any other sharcnet system where eclipse might be started (since they reside in your ~/.eclipse directory). Note that the packages are installed under ~/.eclipse ie) /work/roberpj/eclipse/.eclipse
