Menu
When I create a new file in Eclipse, there's a wide selection of different alternatives appearing in Eclipse.
However I am missing a couple of file which I need to open the "file create wizard" to create - JS files included.
How can I add my own file types as a default choice to appear in the "new files" menu?

Tip. You can set which Eclipse editor or external program to use to open a specific type of file based on its file extension. Just select Window→ Preferences→ Workbench→ File Associations, select the file type, and associate an editor or program with it (if nothing else, you can use Eclipse's default text editor).
Simply go to: Window - Preferences - Java - Code Style - Code Templates - Comments - Types - Edit... and change ${user} to whatever you want. Also go to: Window - Preferences - Java - Editor - Templates - @author - Edit... and change ${user} to whatever you want.
Shift + Alt + J will help you add author name in existing file.
To edit a file, double click it in the Project explorer or Package explorer view. Whenever you open a text file, change it, or the editor receives the focus, the file is checked for errors. If there are errors (or warnings), they are displayed in the editor as shown below.
Yes, from the Eclipse's toolbar, right click > Customize perspective... > Menu Visibility > File > New > check and uncheck file types.

Puuh - just when I had given up I accidentally found this:
Try this: Right click on Eclipse's toolbar and choose "Customize this perspective" option. You will see a dialog box, and on "Shortcuts" tab choose "New" from "Submenus:" droplist.
Find "PHP" in the left pane and check the checkbox next to it. It will enable both "PHP File" and "PHP Project" in "New" menu of your perspective. You can do the same to other file editors as well. (HTML, CSS,....
