Eclipse as an IDE for Shew

It can be useful to use an IDE when debugging and developing for Hyrax due to the graphical interface to gdb as well as the extensive searching and code indexing features that Eclipse provides. This document will go through the steps for getting Eclipse set up pointing into a Shrew checkout. We also explain how we set up debug configurations for debugging modules using the besstandalone program.
