So as much as I like NP++, it has aged itself out of my current tool set. But in my opinion the choice now is to simply use VSCode, which has similar properties to NP++ but with a much richer and actively maintained plugin / extension system. ** EDIT (March 2019): The first comment on this question helped a bit IIRC but fresh installs seem to behave much better, which makes me think that I had managed over time to confuse the app. So does anyone know how to make it stop treating unsaved data so poorly? It is the one feature that makes me want to just use vscode for everything, despite its lack of the ability to act as a persistent cache for random unsaved data.
I've been searching for a solution off and on for days, and it is driving me nuts.
when I create my unsaved tabs (new39, new40, etc.) they get an obnoxious background color that is unpleasant to look at and partially obscures text based on the lighter foreground font I am using. It has syntax highlighting for most common programming languages, JSON and SQL which is very useful. View and Edit config files I use it to view and edit. I use this tool almost daily in the following areas. I also like the style configurator, and particularly the solarized-light theme, which is easy on the eyes.īUT. Notepad++ is an essential text editor tool for everyone. I have used it this way for a long time as I do a lot of experimental stuff when working with Hyperledger blockchain code and data. If you think I should highlight a specific feature let me know as well in the comments field below.Notepad++ has a uniquely useful feature - you can open a new tab and paste some text in and it will remember that text forever without saving it to any formal location. If you find more useful plugins or interesting features of notepad++ that give value to your work, please share them in the comments. Notepad++ is as mentioned little nerdy open-source editor, That mentioned it has a lot of features like Macro and you can write using regex find and replace text, and more. XML might sound old days, but still used nowadays, and can be much noisier than JSON, so I use XML Treview to navigate in the XML file structure.įinally, I use a converter on the fly to convert between ASCII, hex, decimal, binary and octal JsonViewer is very handy to format JSON payload, and it gives a nice overview of your son array/object so you can navigate in it.
The only downside of it is when I compare 2 documents using dark mode, it does not look good: I often compare 2 ( I wrote an old article on how to install the plugins manually) or multiple similar files and do not want to open other software to do that, so I use compare extension for that. Just click on Settings -> Preferences and check Enable dark mode The first thing I do when I install software on my computer, I change the theme to dark. In this article, I will share some of the plugins that I use that give value to my work. I like it because it is light and fast for small editing tasks. Besides my Visual Studio 2022 and Visual Studio Code, I do use notepad++ editor.
