I use netbeans because of real-time syntax checking and refactor things.
I do not use netbeans to generate code.

aggressive message!
maybe because my english sucks and you cannot understand what I am 
trying to say.

btw, I am trying to say, how can I assign the "F1" accelerator to a 
menuitem. The following code doesn't work:
---------------------
JMenuBar jmb = new JMenuBar();
JMenu jm = new JMenu("Help");
JMenuItem jmi = new JMenuItem("Help Index");
jmi.setAccelerator(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_F1, 0));
jmi.addActionListener(listener);
jm.add(jmi);
jmb.add(jm);
---------------------
I don't want "Shift+F1", "Ctrl+F1", etc. I want "F1".

Thanks
