Sorry Alan, I am being too vague in my writing.  My instance of
Eclipse was installed as part of Python(x,y) and included the Pydev
plugin.  I was fortunate as a beginner programmer, that someone else
figured out how to configure Eclipse with the PyDev plugin.  Using
other IDE installed as part of Python(x,y) i.e. Spyder, gave me
insight into what I was missing with Eclipse.  I'm missing a lot, I
mean simply missing out on one aspect of Eclipse.
