This means use Eclipse to compile the project.  This will happen
automatically if you have "Perform build automatically on resource
modification" turned on in the Window -> Preferences -> Workbench dialog.
Or you can make it happen using the "project -> Rebuild Project" menu in
Eclipse.

I will update the instructions to make it more clear that they are meant to
be used from within Eclipse.

Folks:

Thank you for SWT!  I'm trying to learn SWT because it is the newly adopted
GUI
platform for the E language project [1].

I tried to follow the instructions for building from CVS [2], but I'm stuck
on
#4: "Compile the project. This will create a folder called bin under the
org.eclipse.swt project.".  When I run "ant", it gives some successful
sounding
output [3], but no "bin" directory (or file) is created.  I've poked around
for
other things that could be meant by "Compile the project.", but no
top-level
makefile or build script is to be found either.  It can't mean to execute
the
build.csh in "./Eclipse SWT PI/gtk/library/build.csh", because that's
instruction #6!

I will now switch gears and try the "build from a package download"
approach.
