I'm often writing Python scripts for simple filesystem tasks. These scripts
contain only a single file with code, and should be stored and run in a filesystem
location where I want to perform the tasks.

For example:
I code in c:\Downloads\script.py which performs tasks on c:\Downloads\Data\.
I do NOT want any Eclipse project config files to be stored under C:\Downloads.

So I guess I have to create a project onder a different folder, for example
c:\Workspace. Now I have to somehow link c:\Downloads\script.py to the workspace.
Importing does not link, but copy script.py to the workspace, which is not what
I want.

So, is it possible to link external files to a project or workspace? So that
I simply use PyDev as an editor for .py files instead of an IDE, and manage
the file locations myself?
