Can't you just add the NSIDC directory under "Work"? I think there is
only one "level" of projects, i.e. you cannot nest projects in
projects (projects defined by the ide, that is), but you can have
subdirectories in each project (you can think of these as projects, I
guess, but the "real" project is at the "Work" level (includes
everything in the subdirectories).
