Hi Chris,
A quick question:
1. Is your file encoding UTF-8?
At least for NetBeans 15, the configuration file is located in wherever
you installed NetBeans\etc. It's called netbeans.conf.
In my netbeans.conf, I've added -J-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 to
netbeans_default_options.
I haven't tried this with NetBeans 16 yet (upgrade today most likely),
but several people at $work have used prior versions of NetBeans and
have added characters with diacritics.
Using the Character Map and copying the result into a text file worked
on NetBeans 15. An acute accent e showed up in a text file, was saved,
opened, and the diacritic was displayed properly.
The character showed up properly in other UTF-8 aware editors.
. . . just my two cents

Hello,
I am trying to use Latin vowels with macrons in Netbeans 16 in Windows 10. My
searches in such places as StackOverflow have yielded advice, but I have yet to
find the right thing.
One possibility mentioned is just to switch to a font that supports accented
characters, such as 'e' with accent grave - does anyone know which fonts I
should try?
Another set of advice suggests changing the netbeans.conf file, but it has
moved since the advice I found was written. How do I get to it in Windows? I am
also unable to find the default_options file. ??
Thanks
