Hi all,

I'm glad to announce a new version of Pig-Eclipse. There are a few new 
features, and the build problem that prevented it from working on Macs has been 
resolved.

- primitive "find references" functionality (ctrl-shift-g)

- toggle comment functionality (ctrl-shift-c). This existed in the original 
version of Pig-Eclipse and stopped working; it's been fixed.

- hover information for reserved words. Some of the reserved words will have 
hover information, taken from the Pig documentation.

- hover information for builtin functions. Up until this version, Pig-Eclipse 
displayed the JavaDocs for Pig's builtin functions, but if the Pig jar was not 
part of the Eclipse workspace, nothing would be shown. In this event, basic 
hover information (taken from the Pig documentation) will be shown instead.

- syntax highlighting for Pig versions up to 0.16 (you can choose the version 
in the preferences page)

The Eclipse update site is:

Please note that Pig-Eclipse now requires Java 7.

Feedback, comments, improvements - all are welcome.

Enjoy,
Eyal
