Notepad plus plus

A source code editor for the programmer and a better text editor Notepad++ is a free source code editor which supports several programming languages running under the M$ Windows environment.Notepad++ is designed to be a freeware replacement for Notepad.

This project, based on Scintilla edit component (a very powerful editor component) and written in C++ with pure win32 api (i.e. without MFC, 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're still some bugs and missing features.

If you have any question or suggestion about this project, please drop me a mail, I'll love to hear from you. As well, if you have any feature request, you can always do the demand, but there's no warranty that I'll implement it.

Here are some key features of "Notepad plus plus":

  • Syntax Highlighting and Syntax Folding
    Supported languages : C, C++, Java, C#, XML, HTML, PHP, Javascript, RC resource file, makefile, ASCII art file (extension .nfo, doxygen, ini file, batch file, ASP, VB/VBS source files, SQL, Objective-C, CSS, Pascal, Perl, Python and Lua.
  • WYSIWYG
    If you have a colour printer, print your source code (or whatever you want) in colour.
  • Style Configurator
    For each style in every supported language, user can change the background/foreground colour, the font, font size and font style ( bold or Italic ) via the Style Configurator Dialog.
  • User Define 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.
  • 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. 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).
  • Regular Expression Search supported
    You can search 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).
  • 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.
  • Multi-Language environment supported
    The Chinese, Japanese and Korean Windows environments are supported.
  • 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.
  • 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 bloc more easily.
