I would like to enhance Eclipse so that when I press a custom key combo–say Ctrl + Shift + E–then it will run a command on the current file (if my current buffer is foo.c then it will run `mycommand foo.c’ in foo.c’s directory).

Open the External Tools Configuration dialog from the Run menu. Create a new configuration with the following settings.
Location: c:\mycommand.exe (alter to your needs)
Working directory: ${container_loc}
Arguments: ${resource_loc}
Under Prefrences->General->Keys you can setup a shortcut for ‘Run last launched external tool’.
This should solve your problem.
