Restore/Setup Android project without IDE

Sometimes when the Android project directory is broken, you can restore the structure using the android executable in the Android "tools" directory.

android update project -p <path_to_project_directory> -n <project_name> -t <android_sdk_version>

You can also create a new project with:

android create project -p <path_to_project_directory> -n <project_name> -k <package_name> -a <activity_name> -t <android_sdk_version>

The android version parameter looks like this: "android-18".
