Importing a downloaded archived release

Once you have downloaded a release (see instruction at beginning of AIMA3e Workspace Setup) you can import the AIMA3e-Java projects into your workspace as follows:

Select the menu item File->Import...
In the Import Select dialog, select General->Existing Projects into Workspace:
Hit the Next > button.
In the Import Projects dialog select the Select archive file: radio button and Browse... to the .zip release file you previously downloaded from the project's website :

The three projects, aima-core, aima-gui, and aimax-osm should be listed and be automatically selected ( you can deselect aima-all as it is not required).
Hit the Finish button. You should now be able to work with the AIMA3e projects in Eclipse.
