Making it easier to use NetBeans will convert more users to NetBeans, which is a good thing :)

So please add a option in the installer (or in the options of NetBeans) to add a "Edit with NetBeans" context menu item to the Windows context menu, when you rightclick on *any* file.

Most modern Windows editors has this option see fx NotePad++
