How to add custom buttons to Editor toolbar

[Jo Vark]

Hi,
I searched through the mailing list but couldn't
really find an easy way to add a button to the editor
toolbar.
It would be great if I got a brief tutorial.
TIA

Thanks for your reply, but that was not what I was
looking for - I need to add a button next to the
Comment/Uncomment buttons for eg.
THanks,
Jo

Comment/Uncomment buttons for eg.

That tutorial shows you how to add an action/command as a netbeans module.
Then, you can use the layers.xml file to place the control for executing that
action/command where you want it in the toolbar(s).

Thanks for the pointer - with a little help from
http://www.bluemarsh.com 's "Netbeans Default File
System viewer" and the following addition to my
layer.xml file, I got it working!
<folder name="Editors">
<folder name="text">
<folder name="base">
<folder name="Toolbars">
<folder name="Default">
<file name="MyAction.instance">
<attr name="instanceClass"
stringvalue="MyAction"/>
</file>
</folder>
</folder>
</folder>
</folder>
</folder>
