In previous versions of Eclipse I have been able to open a view that presented a serial terminal/console.
How do I do this in Eclipse Juno?
I have a "Terminals" view open and it has text that says:
To open a terminal, right-click the Terminal subsystem under the target. Then select 'Launch Terminal' from the context menu.
I really have no idea what this is talking about and I've been using Eclipse for several years now!
Can someone shed some light on this?
EDIT:
I've discovered that the "Terminal Subsystem under the target", refers to the "Remote Systems" view. I can't find any options for a serial terminal though.

To use a serial terminal in Eclipse Juno.
1: Install the software for serial terminals:
Navigate to: Help -> Install New Software...
Dropdown list for Work with: to say
Juno - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/junoSelect: Mobile and Device Development, especially Target Management Terminal which is "An ANSI (vt102) compatible Terminal including plug-ins for Serial, SSH and Telnet connections."
Click Next and anything else to finish the install ...
2: Open the view
Navigate to: Window -> Show View -> Other ... -> Terminal -> Terminal (NOTE: singular Terminal, not plural Terminals)
3: Open a terminal
The rest should be fairly obvious as the view contains icons to Connect, Disconnect, Settings, etc which are related to Serial, SSH and Telnet connections.
