Sometimes while programming in NetBeans you want to explore a particular file that you are editing on the file system browser, or maybe launch a command in a terminal to do something with it.

Terminal won't open properly if project is on different drive than Netbeans #25
Hi,
There is a problem with action associated to Open in the default OS terminal (Alt+1) button.
Background
Operating system: Windows 7 64bit
I have Netbeans (v. 7.2) installed on C: drive. All my Netbeans projects are on D: drive.
Action 1
Pressing Open in the default OS terminal (Alt+1) button with file/folder selected in Projects panel;
or
Pressing Open in the default OS terminal (Alt+1) button while editing file in the editor;
Result for Action 1
The current path shown in Terminal is Netbeans’ installation folder. I need issue drive change command
C:\Program Files (x86)\NetBeans 7.2>d:
in order to get to the folder where selected/edited file resides.
Expected result for Action 1
Shell Terminal should open with selected/edited file’s current drive and folder.
Workaround
Create custom action with command:
cmd /c start cd /D "${currentFolder}"
and launch it using Launch custom command option.
Please fix the bug which is causing the wrong behaviour described in Result for Action 1.
EDIT:
I did test with the version you created for issue #3.
The shell command issued by the plugin doesn't have the /D switch (as per workaround).
Also I think that was the cause of issue #3 and other similar issues related with this project.
