[Eric] basic workflow

[Jake B]

Got it. Thanks.
However, I think it's faster, more intuitive, and overall more cohesive to
create new modules from the project explorer, through the context menu,
using the same interface as when creating new packages. I'm wondering if
anyone else who's used both PyDev and eric4 feels the same way. If so,
perhaps I could submit a ticket to trac, and then perhaps patch it myself.
I'll only proceed along this path if other people think there's a need for
it, though. Otherwise, I'll adapt my workflow ;)
Also, does eric support extensions? Specifically, is there an extension
point for adding something to the context menu?
I would greatly appreciate hearing what people think.
Thanks.
