I was looking for a small plugin for Eclipse that would allow to open windows explorer on currently selected resource from Package Explorer tree.
I know that Aptana Studio provides this functionality via context menu on the resource, but it has tons of other stuff that I am not interested to.
Are there other solutions?
To view the project explorer, click on Window menu then, click on Show View and select Project Explorer. There is simpler way to open project explorer, when you are in the editor press alt + shift + w and select project explorer.
To open Windows File Explorer to a specific folder, create a shortcut to “%SYSTEMROOT%\explorer.exe /e,<folder>”, where “<folder>” is the folder of your choice.
The Show View commands are activated by pressing Alt + Shift + Q , then the letter for the relevant view, eg. to navigate to the Package Explorer, press Alt + Shift + Q , P .
I use this plugin, it seems ok

In Eclipse Luna and later select a resource, then:
Alt + shift + W > System Explorer
or
Right click > Show In > System Explorer
The exact command that should be executed to open the System Explorer can be configured here:
Window > Preferences > General > Workspace > Command for launching system explorer
