Title: Nodeclipse Online Help - Configuration

## Configuration

Some recommended configuration (These steps are needed for every new workspace):

Goto Window->Preferences

General select Show heap status
General->Workspace -> Text file encoding select other UTF-8
(if Eclipse 4.x Chrome Theme installed (Optional, recommended) )
General->Appearance ->Theme select Jeeeyul's themes - Chrome Theme, restart Eclipse
Team -> Git -> History : Check "Follow renames"

Switch to Node perspective (e.g. Window -> Open Perspective -> Other ... -> Node)

Window -> Show View -> Other... -> REST Client -> REST Client Tool
or Ctrl+3 type `rest`

REST Client Tool is also nice to use in Debug perspective.

#### Optional general Eclipse configuration

General -> Workspace -> Refresh on access General -> Workspace -> Refresh using native hooks or polling (so that you don't need to press `F5` after `npm install`or other changes on file system) General -> Workspace -> Text file encoding - select UTF-8``

General -> Editors -> Text Editors -> Show print margin, 120

General -> Editors -> Text Editors -> Show whitespace characters (just remeber where is this setting)

Take a time to explore other Eclipse setting, you may be rewarded with findings.
