I remember that before I updated my Aptana installation it had the ability to compare two selected files via right-click -> compare. Now it doesn't seem to have this feature enabled...
I wonder if there is a way to achive the same in version 3, build: 3.2.0.201206251729.
Thanks in advance and have a good one!!! :)
PD: When I right click any file the option to compare doesn't appear. Plus the menu "Team" desappeared
You have to change to the proyect explorer view, then you'll see the compare option after right clicking the selected files :)

I run into this problem a lot. Sometimes I would edit and forget about it in Eclipse or maybe keyboard moved randomly and input random characters. How do I view current changes compared to the last save easily in Eclipse? That way, I would know what changes took effect before I save.
If you just want to see what lines have changed, then you can follow the instructions in this answer in order to show a highlight of the changed lines on the left-hand side of your editor.
Aside from that I don't think it's easy to tell what's recently been changed without saving. If you do save then you have the option of comparing with the previous version: right-click on the file in the tree and choose "Compare With -> Local History" and then choose a version you saved earlier.
If you save it you can also compare against what's in source control, of course. You are using some sort of source control?
You can use either
compare editor-show changes between 2 or 3 files by showing each file side-by-side
First select the files on the Project Explorer with control-click.
Now right-click -> Select Compare With / Each Other.

I was using PyDEV without issue but recently when I create a project in Eclipse the project is not visible in the PyDev perspective but is visible in the Java perspective. My project is a python project. It seems that the perspectives are a little mixed up.
Is there a way to fix this?
My solution was:
Going to PyDev Package Explorer
Click View Menu button (arrow pointing down, top left area of the Package Explorer panel)
Top Level Elements
Click Projects
Maybe you added some filter which is hiding it in the PyDev package explorer?
I.e.: have you tried going to the PyDev package explorer filters (in PyDev package explorer > Ctrl+F10 > Customize View).
Or maybe you set the top-level to working sets and don't have a working set on PyDev? (i.e.: Ctrl+F10 > top level elements)
Or maybe you selected a working set which has nothing? (i.e.: Ctrl+F10 > select working set)
I know this is an old question, but I've had to deal with this specific problem in Eclipse 4 Luna, and I have an idea for what's wrong.
Use Package Explorer instead of PyDev Package Explorer.
The native Package Explorer, when in working set view, appears to automatically create and populate the working set "Other Projects." PyDev's explorer does not appear to do this, at least not on my default Luna installation. As well, PyDev's assignment of projects to working sets appears broken on Eclipse 4 Luna, so users of PyDev Package Explorer may have trouble finding their projects between views.
Enable Package Explorer:
- Window -> Show View -> Package Explorer
If Package Explorer not in menu:
Window -> Customize Perspective
Click the Menu Visibility tab.
Expand Window
Expand Show View
Find Package Explorer and put a check in it.
OK
Click Window then Show View, choose Package Explorer and rejoice.
I hope this helps at least one of you. I'm terribly new to Eclipse, and it is probably the single most unfriendly thing I've ever had to use. Good luck!
I had the same problem. Newly created projects did not show up. This is what brought me to this question. While looking at the answer provided by #alecor_Dev, which does not answer to the question, at least in my case, I managed to solve mine.
If you have a working set created and selected new projects will not show up. The easiest way to test is to go to:
PyDev Package Explore->View Menu button (pointing down)-> Deselect Working Set.
If you has a working set but more projects in that workspace more projects will show up.
If you want to keep the view clean you can go back to your working set but add the new project by editing the working set:
PyDev Package Explore->View Menu button (pointing down)-> Edit Active Woking Set.
And click on the project you want to add or remove.
I hope that this will help other with similar issues. While working set are a convenient way to declutter the view, can add to confusion.
I Suggest to #Fabio Zadrozny to add some visible way of marking that we are working inside a working set.
I hope that #medPhys-pl can confirm this although he moved to LiClipse. Obviously, there can be other causes that can create this kind of behaviour, but the initial description of the problem seems very similar to mine and I hope that it will solve other people's issues.
How to edit or remove something from .cvsignore in newest Eclipse (Kepler)?
There is an easy way to add something to .cvsignore:
open Team Synchronizing perspective
right click on element, Add to .cvsignore
How can I reverse that? Some easy way of editing ingored list?
Window -> Preferences -> Team -> Ignored Resources isn't quite I looked for, there are only general rules, like *.exe, *~.
Open the Navogator view (in contrast to the package explorer it shows all files, including .cvsignore) and open the .cvsignore file, edit manually.
Close to the option Add to .cvsignore... there is also the option Add to Version Control, this should make the trick too.
I am using eclipse CNF. When I place a right click in the project or folder for CNF, I see a pop up menu which contains an option "New" and that also contains submenu. How do i add an item to that submenu?
Well it seems i have figured out the way to do it :) :)
following link might help me as well as others searching for the same kind of solution...

Anyone know if it's possible to search and replace in all opened files in netbeans? Can't seem to find the option if there even is one.
I'm using the Netbeans 6.9 PHP IDE
CTRL+SHIFT+H
This will open the Replace in Projects, where-in you can search and replace on files on all open projects, or on the selected project only.
Open the file you want the replacements.
Press Ctrl + H
And them at the bottom you will see
It's available in builds >= 7.4 from NetBeans. Not available in 7.3. I just got a status update message from NetBeans that they've added this feature.
Use Replace in Projects. Shortcut = CTRL+SHIFT+H
Select Open Documents
To search in open files press CTRL+SHIFT+F and in section scope select Open Documents.
Sure you can ... or at least you can do something very similar ...
Go to projects view and select multiple files (the files you have opened in this case). Then press CTRL+F and start searching in the selected nodes. It's not exactly 'opened files' but I think it's your best choice.
Hope that helps!
PD: CTRL + CLICK is a good method to select multiple files on Windows.
This seems impossible in netbeans 6.9 and it hasn't been introduced in Netbeans 7 either.
This is possible just the Rule mentioned.
Check Uncheck the files and hit replace button on left hand side.
Select your files you want to find and replace in Project view ( Window > Projects )
Go to Edit > Replace In Projects...
In Replace in Projects window select "Selection" from "Scope" dropdown menu
Find and replace will be committed on your selected files in Projects view.
This is the way I found.
