I've seen some snippets showing the way to detect events (from keyboard) with swt in java applications, but I haven't found the way of detecting events within an editor that works in eclipse, preferredly, the main editor. Any suggestions?? Thanks.

Hi,

If you want to do some thing on the event that is occur on the
editor of eclipse you have to see the library of eclipse.
ISelection and Action is a class present there actualy
it will provide you a selected object and you can implement
your logic there. Ex- Suppose you slelect a word on the editor
it means text present in active editor is selected so u can do more....

Thanks,

vinay
