I almost did that, but not quite. :-)

The first time I got a project to go through the synthesize and fit I
generated a programming file, and I was about to double click on
Configure Device (iMPACT) and I suddenly thought "How does it know what
pins I want my signals on?" :-) So I looked at the ISE quick start
tutoral I had gone through a few weeks back when I first downloaded and
installed ISE and figured out how to create UCF.
