If you already have a copy of netbeans installed you can easily use the
latest code without waiting for a MacOS bundle to be prepared.
* Download 12.0 beta 5
* Extract it
* Duplicate your existing Netbeans and rename it.
* Control click the new Netbeans copy and select "Show Package Contents"
* Open the Resources folder
* You will find a Netbeans directory there. Note the capitalisation
of that folder then delete it.
* Copy the netbeans directory you extracted from the v12.0 beta 5 zip
bundle into the Resources directory. You may need to rename it to
Netbeans if the original was capitalised.
* At this point you should be able to move back up the folder chain
until you see your app and run it normally.
* Optionally, you can open the netbeans folder, open the bin folder
and toss away the two .exe files
