Notepad++ 4.2.1 (PLUGINS)


[img]http://pichostonline.com/u/070814/0c29961162.jpg[/img]




Notepad++ is a free source code editor (and Notepad replacement), which

supports several programming languages, running under the MS Windows

environment.

This project, based on the Scintilla edit component (a very powerful

editor component), written in C++ with pure win32 api and STL (that

ensures the higher execution speed and smaller size of the program), is

under the GPL Licence.

This project is mature. However, as you can see it's a one-man-project,

there are still some bugs and missing features. If you have any

question or suggestion about this project, please post them on the

forums. As well, if you have any feature requests, you can always make

the demand, but there's no guarantee that I'll implement it.

You're encouraged to translate Notepad++ (if it is not present in the

Download Section) and/or to translate the Notepad++ official site into

your native language.

I hope you enjoy Notepad++ as much as I enjoy coding it.


Here are the features of Notepad++ :
Syntax Highlighting and Syntax Folding

Supported languages :
C C++ Java C# XML HTML
PHP CSS makefile ASCII art (.nfo) doxygen ini

file
batch file Javascript ASP VB/VBS SQL Objective-C
RC resource file Pascal Perl Python Lua TeX
TCL Assembler Ruby Lisp Scheme Properties
Diff Smalltalk Postscript VHDL Ada Caml
AutoIt KiXtart Matlab Verilog Haskell InnoSetup
CMake
WYSIWYG

If you have a colour printer, print your source code (or whatever you

want) in colour.
User Defined Syntax Highlighting

It allows user to define his own language : not only the syntax

highlighting keywords, but also the syntax folding keywords, comment

keywords and the operators. ( screenshot1, screenshot2, screenshot3,

screenshot4 ).
Auto-completion

For most supported languages, user can make his/her own API list (or

download the api files from dowload section). Once the api file is

ready, type Ctrl+Space to launch this action (see screenshot). For more

information about Auto-completion, please see Auto-completion HOWTO.
Multi-Document

You can edit several documents at the same time.
Multi-View

You have two views at same time. That means you can visualize (edit) 2

different documents at the same time (screenshot). You can visualize

(edit) in the 2 views one document at 2 different positions as well.

The modification of document in one view will carry out in another view

(i.e. you modify the SAME document when you are in clone mode, see

screenshot).
Regular Expression Search/Replace supported

You can search and replace one string in the document by using the

regular expression.
Full Drag ?N' Drop supported

You can open a document by drag & drop. You can also move your document

from a position (or even a view) to another by drag & drop.
Dynamic position of Views

The user can set the position of the views dynamically (only in 2 views

mode : the splitter can be set in horizontal or in vertical), see

screenshot.
File Status Auto-detection

If you modify or delete a file which opened in Notepad++, you will be

notified to update your document (reload the file or remove the file).
Zoom in and zoom out

That's another fantastic function of Scintilla component. Just see

screenshot.
Multi-Language environment supported



The Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic and Hebrew Windows environments

are supported. See Notepad++ under the Chinese Windows , under the

Arabic Windows and under the Hebrew Windows in action screenshot.
Bookmark

User can just click on the bookmark margin (located right side of line

number margin) or type Ctrl+F2 to toggle a book mark. To reach the

bookmark, type just F2 (Next bookmark) or Shift+F2 (Previous bookmark).

To clear all bookmarks, click the Menu Search->Clear All bookmarks. See

screenshot.
Brace and Indent guideline Highlighting

When the caret stay beside of one of those symbol { } [ ] ( ) , the

symbol beside of caret and its symmetric opposite symbol will be

highlighted, as well as the indent guideline (if any) in order to

locate the block more easily. See screenshot1, screenshot2 .
Macro recording and playback
