How can I view packages as folder structure in eclipse

In eclipse, I would like to see packages as a folder structure rather than the flattened look provided by the Package Explorer default settings, is there a way to do this?

Eclipse offers the Navigator view which will display your project in the way you are asking. To open this view select Window > Show View > Navigator.

Select the first package in the package explorer. Press Alt-Shift-N to open the new item context menu. Click "Package."

Make sure that the new package name is a sub-package of the original package. For example, if your original package is com.example, the new package might be com.example.gui.

EDIT: If you want to see the nested packages, Eugene says that you can do this:

Package Explorer / View Menu (Ctrl-F10) / Package Presentation... / Hierarchical
