Problems with Eclipse

[shmuel siegel]

Many eclipse dialogs are not working for me. For instance when I try to 
create a new python project, I can't get past naming the project. 
Neither the apply nor the finish button do anything. Similarly, for a c 
project I can't add arguments to the debug launch. Again apply and debug 
buttons don't do anything. I tried launching eclipse from the command 
line but there weren't any messages. Any ideas about what is happening?
