> I don't know why NetBeans only can work with a shell, which is installed as cygwin for Windows or when you use NetBeans on a *nx operating system. NetBeans should use cmd.exe, cygwin, WSL (Bash - Ubuntu on Windows), PowerShell or whatever you want.
> Visual Studio Code uses this approach and it makes sense. I don't need to change the window to use my cmd outside of NetBeans. I can use any feature in NetBeans in my CMD or powershell, when it is inside NetBeans, w/o switching windows or a desktop etc.
> So long story short, NetBeans can only handle shell applications, natively installed on *nx systems or via cygwin for Windows. But it should be possible to use any shell/command line that you want on any operating system.
> Windows - cmd, powershell and with Windows 10 the WSL (Ubuntu on windows, which is now stable and part of the ubuntu subsystem, no emulation)
> *nx - Bash, sh, fish whatever.
> Mac - similar to *nx
> So we need first the possibilty, that NetBeans should handle more than a shell AND we need an option, if you open the terminal, you have to choose your favorite shell/command line and set it to default, to open a new tab, w/o choosing again (new option for this).
