<h1>
Exporting files </h1>
<p class="Para">Files can be exported from the Workbench either by:</p>
<ul>
  <li> Dragging and dropping to the file system (Windows and Linux GTK only), or</li>
  <li> <img align="texttop" border="0" src="../images/win_only.png" alt="Windows only" />
    Copying and pasting to the file system, or</li>
  <li> Using the
  <a class="command-link" href="javascript:executeCommand(&quot;org.eclipse.ui.file.export&quot;)" shape="rect">
  <img src="PLUGINS_ROOT/org.eclipse.help/command_link.png"/>
  <b>Export wizard</b></a>.</li>
</ul>
<h2>
Drag and drop or copy and paste</h2>
<p class="Para"> <img align="texttop" border="0" src="../images/win_only.png" alt="Windows only" /> 
  The operating system's file system explorer can be used to export a copy of 
  a folder or file from the Workbench to the file system.</p>
<ol>
  <li> 
    <p class="Para"> Open the operating system's file system explorer.</p>
  </li>
  <li> 
    <p class="Para"> Drag the file JanesFile.txt from one of the navigation view 
      to the file system explorer.</p>
  </li>
  <li> 
    <p class="Para">Depending on where you are dragging to, you may need to hold 
      down the Ctrl or Shift key while dragging to ensure the file is copied. 
      Look for a small plus sign on the drag cursor to know whether the file is 
      being copied or moved. </p>
  </li>
  <li> 
    <p class="Para"> The export can also be achieved by selecting the file in 
      the Navigator and choosing <b>Edit &gt; Copy</b>, then</p> 
    <p class="Para">pasting it in the file system explorer.</p> </li>
</ol>
<h2>
 Export wizard</h2>
<p class="Para"> The Export wizard can be used to export from the Workbench to 
  the file system.</p>
<ol>
  <li> 
    <p class="Para"> Select the project JaneQuser in the navigation view. </p>
  </li>
  <li> 
    <p class="Para"> From the popup menu, select <b>Export</b>.</p>
  </li>
  <li> 
    <p class="Para"> In the Export wizard, select <b>File system</b>, then click

  </li>
  <li> 
    <p class="Para">Expand JaneQuser project, and click on JanesFolder. In the 
      right pane ensure that only JanesINIFile.ini is selected. Notice the 
      folder and project in the left pane now have a grayed checkbox indicating 
      that some, but not all, of their contents will be exported.</p>
    <p class="Para">The <b>Select Types</b> button can be used to filter the types 
      of resources to export.</p>
    <p class="Para"><strong>Note:</strong> To export JanesINIFile.ini only, simply 
      select it in the navigation view and choose <b>File &gt; Export</b>. The 
      Export wizard will automatically ensure it is the only file selected for 
      export. </p>
    <p class="Para"> <img src="../images/Image43_export_tree.png" alt="Export Wizard. Enter a destination directory." border="0" /></p>
  </li>
  <li> 
    <p class="Para"> In the <b> To directory</b> field, type or browse to select 
      a location in the file system for the exported resources to reside.</p>
    <p class="Para"> If the name of a directory that does not exist is entered 
      the Export wizard will offer to create it once <b>Finish</b> is selected.</p>
  </li>
  <li> 
    <p class="Para"> In the <b>Options</b> area, options are given to:</p>
    <ul class="UnorderedList">
      <li class="Item"> Overwrite existing resources without warning </li>

        directories</li>
    </ul>
