How to import Eclipse syntax highlighting profile in Netbeans for Java projects?

Question

I have to use both IDEs and I would like to use the Eclipse style of syntax highlighting in Netbeans. Does any one know how to import it (or change any configuration file)? I've already set Netbeans to use the Eclipse key bindings.

Is there any better way than manually changing the colors of every keyword for the Java editor?

Thanks,

Luís

You can change the style of syntax highlighting in NetBeans by going to Tools > Options and selecting the Fonts & Colors tab.

In order to import a syntax highlighting profile use the Import button from the above mentioned Options window.
