Ok, so the problem exists in netbeans 6.5.1 on OpenBSD just like in OpenBSD's netbeans 5.5 port. The next question would be, is it present on other OSes as well? For shits and giggles, I've just installed netbeans 6.5 on Ubuntu. I've never used netbeans and I'm not a programmer, but if you told me a series of tubes^W steps that reproduces this issue under OpenBSD, then I could try the same steps and see if I can reproduce on Ubuntu 9.04, i.e. if it's in any way OpenBSD's "fault" or it netbeans is just fucked somehow. regards, --ropers
