If I've got a file open in Eclipse, how can I figure out where it is on the filesystem?
For example, in Vim I would use :pwd.

Eclipse also has the ability to link the explorer view with the current file, so that whenever you change a file, it is expanded and selected in the explorer view.
Just look for the following image at the top of the view:

@tangens - Oh, that's very true...that always annoyed me too. It's been a while since I had to deal with Eclipse.

Use the Eclipse menu:
File->Properties
or the shortcut:
Alt-Enter
You should be able to see the Location associated with the Resource

What you're looking for is the 'Properties' dialogue for the current file. This can be activated in two ways:
- Selecting from the menu: File -> Properties
- Using the shortcut: Alt + Enter
This gives you a dialogue which contains both the full path of the document, as well as the relative path from the workspace root.
The dialogue can be quite handy: it allows you to highlight and copy the file path.
