How to create new project with existing files

This is funny. It should be straightforward right? Anyway, for fun sake, i will include this:

Let's say you have source files at ~/Source/MyFiles

And you want to create a new Eclipse project at ~/Projects/MyFiles. How do you do that?

First, File->New Project -> Select your project type and compiler ->Finish.

And how do we "copy" our files into our new project? Easy.

Right click at the Project Explorer tab (anywhere) and go:
Import-> General ->File System ->  Browse to your source files ~/Source/MyFiles.

Tick files you want to import into your new projects .

And Finish. Done !
