FIgured I'd check here to see if anyone may be able to help.

I started working on some code in Netbeans and forgot to change the default
license and ended up with a lot of "default license" present with the
template references to how to set it up.

However as I understand it, once set this only works on new files
and was curious if there is a way to do so with existing files.

I've read (
https://www.codejava.net/ides/netbeans/how-to-update-license-header-for-java-files-in-netbeans
)
further about an older "license-changer" plugin previously found here
http://plugins.netbeans.org/plugin/17960/license-changer but not available
on the new plugin portal (
https://plugins.netbeans.apache.org/?search=license-changer&nbv=&cat= ).

One of the above articles mentions it was developed by Tim Boudreau in one
of the snapshots.

I tried looking on the older archived plugin sites but from a cursor check
(unless I missed it), didn't find it here either.

I'm also aware of the netbeans-tool Converter tool as mentioned here
https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg07114.html

But was curious if a way to do within Netbeans and/or revive the plugin?
