Lightning components and files in package.xml

I'm trying to pull the lightning components into my IDE, but can't figure out the way to include them in package.xml... would anyone know? ... The Dev guide only talks about packaging as a package, I couldn't find mention of lightning components in migration tool etc to give some lead on my problem...

I don't know if the IDE supports Lightning or Release 32.0 yet.  It usually lags about a release behind the rest of the platform. 

But I did get a retrieve to work with the ant tool.  See the answer post in this thread--

Sorry Its just guess from my limited knowledge on lightning components...
Try including namespace or package

Search for package.xml in https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.api_meta.meta/api_meta/meta_auradefinitionbundle.htm

I hope that helps.

I got the IDE to work also.  I didn't see "aura" or "lightning" in the meta data selector.  So I manually edited the package.xml file in the project.  I made two changes -- version changed from 31.0 to 32.0.  added types to get * for AuraDefinitionBundle.
