I prepared the original SWT source like this

1. make an eclipse project and load the sources.
2. switch to flat package view
3. select all packages and do 'organize imports'
4. load all files into gvim
5. remove all tabs with ":bufdo retab", having tabstop=4
6. do some global search replace
	":bufdo %s:==:is:g"
	":bufdo %s:!=:!is:g"
	":bufdo %s:\<boolean\>:bool:g"
	":bufdo %s:\<org.eclipse.swt\>:dwt:g"
	":bufdo %s:\<SWT\>:DWT:g"
	":bufdo %s:\<package\>:module:"
	":bufdo %s;\<implements\>;:;"
	":bufdo %s;\<extends\>;:;"

7. save all files
	":wall"
8. rename all .java to .d

Now you have files, that are good for making diffs and merges with your 
later ported code.

Keep those files for later, if you want to merge a newer
JFace version, than you can follow the same steps and make a three-way merge

The String to char[] replacements should be done interactively. So you 
can let them be unchanged in javadoc comments.
