Notepad++, the ultimate notepad !

28. April 2007

Since a long time, I was searching for a free and complete text editor to install on all my machines. I think this one will become my new friend !

The famous one that would resolve my problems is probably Notepad++. 

The interesting features are (for me) the following ones :

  • XML editing (to collapse nodes and include syntax coloration…)
  • "All" programming language coloration
  • Having a hexacidemal view of the content (hex edition)
  • Evaluate or change text encoding
  • Advanced search and replace features (a lot of options…with "light" regular expression possibilities)
  • Extensible through plugins
  • Multi document management
  • And ultimate pleasure : creating macros for critical situations 

 Thanks notepad++ to exists and to be really FREE !!

Maybe the "compare two documents" feature is currently missing ? I will search…

Browse on the official site : http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net

Obviously, my second friend is Paint.NET for image editing…also thanks to him.
