1) Start Netbeans. 2) If application window is already full screen, click the middle "Restore Down" button and then click the middle "Maximize" button. If it is not already full screen, click "Maximize, then "Restore Down", then "Maximize" again. 3) Go to Tools>>Options>>Miscellaneous and click on "Versioning" tab and then "Terminal" tab.
