I do use WSL myself quite a lot, and I used to use Cygwin before, though never 
from NetBeans.
I think it should be possible to configure WSL to allow SSH connections to 
localhost. Then you could connect NetBeans to WSL via SSH.

Subject: Windows subsystem Linux Terminal in NB

Dear list

I use CygWin under Netbeans from 8.2 (Windows64 version) and it works really 
nice (as like Bash terminal under a Linux based NB).

My question: Now Windows OS support WSL (Windows subsystem for linux), which is 
more powerful and more compatible than CygWin for native Linux application in 
Windows OS. So, Does NB team have some plan to incorporate WSL Terminal in 
Windows-NB ( in future, at least)?

Thanks in advance

Krishnamohan
