Newbie - setting up python projects
===

This seems like a bit of an easy question, but I can't find an answer.

I have Eclipse Juno working with PDT and have just added pydev. Following various tutorials I've done what I thought was the hard part of setting up the interpreter on mac.
My workspace is set to /Applications/Mamp/htdocs/Eclipse development/

However, I can't seem to be able to create a simple project.

In PyDev Package Explorer on the left hand side, Eclipse lists my 3 existing PHP projects.

RemoteSystemsTempFiles
Test Debug
Trial

If I try and use File/New/PyDev Project, then as soon as I start typing a name for the project I get an error at the top of the dialog box saying '.project found in: /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/Eclipse development (use import project).
But I don't have a project yet to import so I can't use that I just want to set up a project folder within Eclipse development and put all my python projects into that.

Any help greatly appreciated. 

Cheers, Domc
