Alternatively, if the project you want to work with already exists on your hard drive (for example, because you have downloaded it as a tar file from an FTP server, because you already checked out a version of the project from a version control system, or because it is your own project that exists only on your own hard drive), then use Projects -> Open/Import project dialog. If the project already has a makefile (or CMakeList.txt) then browse into the directory in which your project resides, and select the makefile; you will then be shown a further dialog that enables you to change the name of the project (from the default, which is the name of the folder containing the makefile). For a makefile the Build System system selection should remain as Custom Makefile Project Manager. If you have a makefile with multiple targets then you will have to select Run->Configure Launches..., select Global and then click the +Add New button, select Compiled Binary, select the Executable radio button, and enter the full path of the executable in the Executable text box.
