I'm running Eclipse 3.5 (64-bit) on Mac 10.6.1. I just installed it and
added the CDT package including all the optional stuff. The only tabs I
have under "Paths and Symbols" are Includes, Symbols, Source Location,
and References. Where's my Linker and Linker Path? How am I being stupid?

Thanks,

I've just realised your problem.

If the "Linker" tab is not being shown, it is because you have a project that is not linked - that is, it is probably a library project.

What you need to do, is create a new executable project. This is a project type that uses a linker and thus you can link a library to it.
