A quick way to delete a line in netBeans
For Mac command it is command+e.
Press Ctrl + x, or Ctrl + e while your cursor on the line to be deleted.
The command will delete the line and place the cursor to the starting of next line.
Does Ctrl-E not work for you? This is the default short-cut in NetBeans on a Windows machine.
If you click on Help you can get the keyboard shortcuts card, print it out, it's pretty handy and has saved me quite a bit of time hunting for easier ways to do things.
