Bring FMIT (Free Music INstrument Tuner) into Eclipse as a project, Build and Run in Ubuntu

Question

I am trying to import the download available at http://home.gna.org/fmit/ into Eclipse (on Ubuntu), compile and run.

I have managed to create a C++ project in Eclipse, and then use the project wizard to import the home folder of the FMIT download. But I am lost when it comes to using the makefile to set the project up, build and run it.

I do .net VB website and Database development so I am kind of lost in Eclipse.

Thx

FMIT exists in Ubuntu's repository. Is there any reason why you can't just use Ubuntu's version, or do you specifically need to compile from source?

sudo apt-get install fmit
