title: Is the terminal in netbeans just cygwin?
body: <p>I have been working away with cygwin to type <code>g++ and ./a.out</code> commands when I noticed netbeans has a terminal window that works the same way. What is that terminal window made from? Is it the same thing as cygwin? What's the difference between cygwin, netbeans terminal, and windows terminal <code>(run-&gt;cmd)</code> and why don't <code>g++ and ./a.out</code> work in the windows terminal?</p>
