How to change NetBeans language (locale)

I am not used to any IDE in Portuguese (my native language) so I do not like to use the NetBeans interface in Portuguese.

So, in order to change that:

Go to Netbeans installation directory and find the netbeans.conf file inside the /etc dir:

C:\NetBeans-7.0.1\etc\netbeans.conf

Open the file netbeans.conf and find netbeans_default line and just add "-J-Duser.language=en -J-Duser.region=US" at the end of this line and restart NetBeans.

netbeans_default_options="-J-client -J-Xss4m -J-Xms256m -J-XX:PermSize=64m -J-Dapple.laf.useScreenMenuBar=true -J-Dapple.awt.graphics.UseQuartz=true -J-Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true -J-Duser.language=en -J-Duser.region=US"

That is it! :-D
