Notepad++ is a free source code editor (and Notepad replacement), which supports several programming languages, running under the MS Windows environment. It also gives the extra functionality to define a user’s own language for the syntax folding and syntax highlighting. You can print your source code in color. It allows a user to edit the different document in the same time and even to edit the same document synchronizely in 2 different views. Notepad++ supports full drag and drop. The programming languages supported by Notepad++ are: ASP, Ada, ASCII art, Assembly, AutoIt, BAT, C, C#, C++, Caml, CSS, doxygen, FORTRAN, HTML, Haskell, Java, javascript, KiXtart, Lisp, Lua, makefile, Matlab, Objective-C, Pascal, Perl, PHP, PostScript, Python, Ruby, Scheme, Unix Shell Script, Smalltalk, SQL, Tcl, TeX, Verilog, VHDL, VB/VBScript, XML.
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.

It’s strange there’s no news about this release on official web site and also it’s not popping up in program’s update dialog.
Simple design, Easy to use, straightforward menu, I enjoy the way it holds the HTML file even with you quit the software.
I like to recommend this to anyone that is starting out and has a prefer to ‘play’. The software is incredibly self-explanatory and it is providing me with a great experience.
Awsome text editor! :X
One of the best software for programmer’s … :roll:

For some reason I never liked the layout of this program.
It’s almost right, but just not quite.
Here’s a hard charging alternative:
