NetBeans 6.9 Beta LineWrap

Question

-J-Dorg.netbeans.editor.linewrap=true

This command, I have read here , turns the line wrap feature on. What I need to know, however, where can I put this command in order to turn it on? I am using NetBeans 6.9 on Mac OS X 10.6. Thanks in advance for any help!

Answer 1

You can use this on the command line when you start NetBeans...

That would look something like this

/Applications/NetBeans/NetBeans\ 6.9\ Beta.app/Contents/Resources/NetBeans/bin/netbeans -J-Dorg.netbeans.editor.linewrap=true

Or, you can add it to the netbeans_default_options variable in the file

Applications/NetBeans/NetBeans\ 6.9\ Beta.app/Contents//Resources/NetBeans/etc/netbeans.conf

Answer 2

OK, I have found it. On Mac OS X, you have to control-click the Netbeans app icon, click on 'Show Package Contents', go to Contents/Resources/NetBeans/etc/ and modify the netbeans.conf file.
