After some time of finding myself I am back... 2 days ago my friend and colleague ask me if I know about netbeans feature to convert native characters to ASCII. Same as native2ascii command line but integrated in netbeans editor. Quick answer in my mind: There has to be some plugin, so
UTFG... After googling by myself I found only
this one. It looks well, but there is no integration with netbeans editor.
So what I did? I wrote plug-in according to my vision. I know it's not good approach to use native characters in java source at all. Better idea is using properties bundles. But sometimes it's OK, when you want to write some small piece of code which is used only by yourself.
Some screenshots:
1. You can use java editor hint:
2. Or just press CTRL+SHIFT+A or right mouse click on selected text:
3. and result is:
You can download this plugin
