Thanks Mathias, I think I'm starting to put it together in my head. In the README for the project there's this gem.
"NetBeans also runs with JDK 8, although then it will not include tools for the JDK 9 Shell." I know I was building and running NB on JDK8. Can anyone confirm that my 'applemenu' error was in support of the above mentioned JDK 9 shell tools? Also I just noticed that the README has changed to say that you can now build the project with 8 or 11? How'd I miss that? Thanks again for your help.
