Description sjs 2007-10-04 13:14:00 UTC
netbeans --open [filename] is broken in the daily builds of the Ruby NetBeans IDE, on both OS X and Linux (Ubuntu, amd64).

Linux, NetBeans IDE Dev 200710020000: The focus switches to NetBeans but the display does not show the new file,
sometimes artifacts of it are visible as things repaint.  If I alt-tab to another app and give it a few seconds and
switch back the display updates and shows I am at the correct place.

OS X, NetBeans IDE Dev 200710040000: The focus does not switch to NetBeans (nice), but nothing appears to happen after
switching back and forth between NetBeans and another app.  If I click the Show Opened Documents List arrow in the top
right corner the display begins to update and I see bits of the tab or the file text.  I must scroll to update the
display and begin working with the file.  I found that the documents list / scrolling trick works on Linux as well.
