Description boblang99 2010-11-11 15:23:35 UTC 
If I use Mac OS X Finder to find a Netbeans project folder, there appears to be no easy way to open it in Netbeans, other than by manually starting Netbeans and then repeating the navigation process to the project folder.

It would be useful if I could either ctrl-click on the folder (or some file within it) to open NB and load the project; or maybe if I could drag the project folder from the Finder window onto the Netbeans icon in the dock.
