How to create a scratch pad in Eclipse?

Question

This is a very simple question. I often find myself wanting to create a scratch pad/buffer in Eclipse in which I need to copy-paste something or write some notes without creating a file for it.

For example, when I am working in Vim, I can create a new buffer with :new (actually a shortcut key mapped to :new) and get going. Or in most other editors, I can just press Ctrl+N to create a new buffer.

Is this possible in Eclipse?

Answer 1

Maybe this could do: "File" -> "New" -> "Other" -> "General" -> "Untitled text file"
