       Open Resource
     </h1>
     <p>
       This dialog allows you to browse the workbench for a file to open in an editor
     </p>
     <ul>
       <li>
         <strong>Select an item to open</strong>: In this field, type the first few
         characters of the name of the file you want to select.
         <p>The following pattern kinds are supported:</p>
         <br>
         <strong>Wildcards</strong>:<br>
         <ul>
           <li>
             &quot;*&quot; for any string and &quot;?&quot; for any character
           </li>
           <li>
             terminating &quot;&lt;&quot; or &quot; &quot; (space)
             to prevent the automatic prefix matching, e.g. &quot;M*file&lt;&quot;
             to match <code>Makefile</code> and <code>MockFile</code> but not <code>MakeTheFiles</code>
           </li>
         </ul>
         <strong>Camel case</strong>:<br>
         <ul>
           <li>
             &quot;CS&quot; for file names containing &quot;C&quot; and &quot;S&quot;
             as upper-case letters in camel-case notation, e.g. <code>CreateStuff.java</code>
           </li>
           <li>
             &quot;CreSNo&quot; for file names containing &quot;Cre&quot;, &quot;S&quot;,
             and &quot;No&quot; as parts in camel-case notation, e.g.
             <code>CreateStuffNow.jsp</code>
           </li>
           <li>
               terminating &quot;&lt;&quot; or &quot; &quot; (space) to fix the number of camel-case parts,
               e.g. &quot;CreS&lt;&quot;
               matches &quot;CreateStuff.java&quot;, but not
               &quot;CreateStuffNow.jsp&quot; nor &quot;Createstuff.txt&quot;.
           </li>
         </ul>
         <strong>Folder prefixes</strong>:<br>
         <p>
         Both pattern kinds also support <strong>folder prefixes</strong>.
         If the pattern contains a /, the part before the last / is used to match a path in the workspace, e.g.
         &quot;org.eclipse.ui/plugin.xml&quot;.<br>
         Or a bit more complex: &quot;*/ui&lt;/pack*.html&quot; matches e.g. files called &quot;package.html&quot;
         in a folder named &quot;ui&quot; (but not in folders like &quot;uitools&quot; or &quot;*/ui/internal&quot;).
         </p>
         <br>
         <strong>Relative paths</strong>:<br>
         <p>
         For example, "./Mak" matches all files starting with "Mak" in the folder of the active editor or selection, while
         "../Mak" matches such files in the parent folder.
         </p>
         <br>
       </li>
       <li>
         <strong>Matching items</strong>: This list displays matches for the pattern you type in the <strong>Select an item to open</strong> field.
         <ul>
           <li>Recently opened files show up in a history section at the top of the list.</li>
           <li>If the pattern matches many files with the same name, the files that are closer to
               the currently edited or selected resource are shown on top of the matching items list.</li>
         </ul>
       </li>
     </ul>

     <p>
     The <b>Open</b> button opens the file with the default editor for the chosen file.
     A different editor can be selected in the context menu on a file or in the <b>Open With</b> drop-down button.
     </p>

     <p>
     The <b>Show In</b> drop-down button can be used to show the chosen file in a view.
     </p>

     <p>
       The behavior of the <strong>Open Resource</strong> dialog can be further customized using the dialog menu:
     </p>
     <table border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" summary="Open resource options">
       <caption>

           </td>

             When selected, the <strong>Open Resource</strong> dialog shows an additional bar at the bottom of the dialog which displays the
             full path of the selected file.
