Description

It would be very useful to be able to open a directory from the files window, into a new terminal (outside the IDE). e.g. right-click->open-in-terminal. A lot of people prefer to provide git commands or perform maven builds outside netbeans. 

If this is not easy to implement, at least a right-click -> copy-path can be added, so that a `cd <paste>+<enter>` would be used as an alternative.

 

Note: previously terminalextras plugin could be used for this. See related issue: https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=198283 . 

But, currently there is no support in netbeans 9/10.
