+
+<h2>SWT Example Launcher</h2>
+
+<p>
+The Example Launcher is used to launch SWT examples, which can either be Workbench views
+or standalone applications.
+</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li>Workbench views are examples that are integrated into Eclipse. When the launcher
+starts a Workbench view, it is opened in the currently active perspective.
+<li>Standalone applications are launched in a separate window.
+</ul>
+
+<p>
+For information on how to run the standalone examples without the SWT Example Launcher,
+refer to <a href="swt_manual_setup.html">SWT standalone examples setup</a>.
+</p>
+<p>
+The SWT Workbench view examples can also be launched directly without using the SWT Example
+Launcher. SWT Workbench view examples can be found under the <strong>SWT Examples</strong> category of the
+<strong>Show Views</strong> dialog.
+</p>
+
+<h3>Running the Example Launcher</h3>
+
+<p>
+From Eclipse's <strong>Window</strong> menu, select <strong>Show View &gt; Other</strong>.
+In the <strong>Show View</strong> dialog, expand <strong>SWT Examples</strong> and select the <strong>SWT Example Launcher</strong> view.
+A view containing a list of examples will appear in your current perspective.
+When you select an example from the list a brief description of the example is displayed.
+Click on the <strong>Run</strong> button to launch the example.
