Apparently one of the main themes of NetBeans 6.0 is going to be support for scripting languages (yet another indication of the industry wide ascendency of Scripting. It is a VERY good time to embrace scripting or “learn PowerShell and increase your integrated lifetime earnings” J). HERE is a blog entry of someone that added PowerShell support to NetBeans. Good stuff!

It is awesome to see all the IDEs that now support PowerShell. I look forward to the day when I can tell you that if you want a great PowerShell IDE you can use Visual Studio. J
