Installing the plugin
- Download the plugin jar from google code.
- Find your Eclipse installation's "dropins" folder and copy the plugin jar into that folder.
- On OSX, this is /Applications/eclipse/dropins/
- Restart Eclipse.
- In Eclipse Preferences, find settings panel for File Associations. Should be in
- General -> Editors -> File Associations
- Click the Add... button and add *.chtml
- Select *.chtml and click the other "Add..." button down by the "Associated Editors" list below.
- From the list of "Internal Editors" (make sure "External Programs" is not checked), scroll down and select
- "HTML Chunk Template Editor"
- Repeat step 5 for *.cxml (and whatever other extensions you wish to use for your templates).
- (Optional) Add "HTML Chunk Template Editor" to the list of available editors for *.html files. I make it the default but of course this is up to you.
Hooray! Syntax highlighting! Outline view!

From java code, right-click a template name anywhere in your code and select "Open Snippet" to jump to the definition.
