[Pydev-users] What is the difference between a 'source folder' and a folder in Pydev

[Don T. <nos...@gm...>]

Fabio:

The new command lets you create either a source folder or a folder but I 
don't understand what is special about a source folder.

Is there any reason that I should not create folders instead of source 
folders.  Regular folders have more options (eg. links)

The same is true of files vs. Pydev modules.  Is there any reason not to 
simply create a file with a .py extension instead of using create Pydev 
Module.  Again, files have more options (eg. links) than modules.
