Version 4.7.5 includes unspecified updates.
Notepad++ is a free (free as in "freespeech", but also as in "free beer") source code editor and Notepadreplacement, which supports several programming languages, runningunder the MS Windows environment.
This project, based on the Scintilla edit component (a verypowerful editor component), written in C++ with pure win32 api and STL(that ensures the higher execution speed and smaller size of theprogram), is under the GPL Licence.
This project is mature. However, as you can see it's aone-man-project, there are still some bugs and missing features. If youhave any question or suggestion about this project, please post them onthe forums. As well, if you have any feature requests, you can alwaysmake the demand, but there's no guarantee that I'll implement it.
You're encouraged to translate Notepad++ (if it is not present inthe Download Section) and/or to translate the Notepad++ official siteinto your native language.
I hope you enjoy Notepad++ as much as I enjoy coding it.
Here are the features of Notepad++ :

Notepad++ is a Notepad replacementwith an eye toward programmers, although it should also appeal to thecasual user who wants a cross between Notepad and WordPad. Notepad++has some noticeable differences from WordPad. Support for tabs is key,letting users manage different documents simultaneously. Line-numberingis important, too, a feature that nobody mucking about in C should bewithout.
The interface is much simpler compared with some of itscompetitors. A familiar row of icons with their mouse-over labels sitsat the top, and one row of tabs is just below that. The rest of thescreen is made of nothing but pure white space. All the coding toolslive in the menu bar, with some represented on the toolbar. Users cancompile and run macros, convert text to Hex, submit directly to W3C forvalidation, launch in Firefox and IE, and more. There's also a built-inspell-checker.
Choosing between Notepad++ and NoteTab Light probably will dependas much on layout as anything else. Although, forgive the pun, notablyNotepad++ can not autoreplace Notepad, it's still an excellent Notepadreplacement.
