957 Vim understands a number of key bindings that execute NetBeans commands.
73fe8baea242 updated for version 7.2a
vimboss
parents: 1240
diff changeset
958 These are typically all the Function key combinations. To execute a NetBeans
73fe8baea242 updated for version 7.2a
vimboss
parents: 1240

959 command, the user must press the Pause key followed by a NetBeans key binding.
73fe8baea242 updated for version 7.2a
vimboss
parents: 1240

960 For example, in order to compile a Java file, the NetBeans key binding is
73fe8baea242 updated for version 7.2a
vimboss
parents: 1240

961 "F9". So, while in vim, press "Pause F9" to compile a java file. To toggle a

976 must be loaded and enabled. If you have a Sun ONE Studio Enterprise Edition

diff changeset
978 you may need to find another way of obtaining this open source module.

73fe8baea242 updated for version 7.2a

980 You can check if you have this module by opening the Tools->Options dialog
73fe8baea242 updated for version 7.2a
vimboss
parents: 1240
diff changeset
981 and drilling down to the "Modules" list (IDE Configuration->System->Modules).

73fe8baea242 updated for version 7.2a

989 There are 2 ways of obtaining the External Editor module. The easiest way
73fe8baea242 updated for version 7.2a
vimboss
parents: 1240
diff changeset
990 is to use the NetBeans Update Center to download and install the module.
73fe8baea242 updated for version 7.2a
vimboss
parents: 1240
diff changeset
991 Unfortunately, some versions do not have this module in their update
73fe8baea242 updated for version 7.2a
vimboss
parents: 1240
diff changeset
992 center. If you cannot download via the update center you will need to
73fe8baea242 updated for version 7.2a
vimboss
parents: 1240
diff changeset
993 download sources and build the module. I will try and get the module
73fe8baea242 updated for version 7.2a
vimboss
parents: 1240
diff changeset
994 available from the NetBeans Update Center so building will be unnecessary.
