A little background for those of you who are not familiar with Netbeans: it is an open source platform to build development tools with, and specifically there are a lot of modules for Java development. http://www.netbeans.org. Sun's Forte for Java IDE, which comes in two versions (one of which is free), is based on Netbeans. There used to be an experimental module that was targeted specifically at Emacsen (all versions). I looked at the site now, and it looks like that specific module has been superseeded by one that specifically targets XEmacs and Vim just now. http://externaleditor.netbeans.org/ It is quite possible to use Emacs and Netbeans at the same time concurrently without the editor integration module, which is what I do, most of the time. There are occasional delays of a couple of seconds if you open the same file both in Emacs and with the IDE's editor; but there is usually no need to do that. Ana
