Notepad++ is a great source code editor, but it also performs great as a Windows Notepad replacement. The application supports several programming languages and file-types, including C, C#, CSS, HTML, JavaScript, PHP, Ruby, SQL, and others. Even though Notepad++ detects the code language automatically, you might sometimes need to specify it manually. This can be done by using the "Language" main menu. The code highlighting is done depending on the language you choose.

After installing the program, I recommend you take some time to configure it. You can set it to remember the last opened files, to create automatic backups of all the files you save, or you can specify text printing preferences. It's also possible to set the colors which are used for code highlighting and the program's shortcut keys.

With just a few clicks, you can convert the encoding (ANSI, UTF8, UCS2) and format (MAC, Linux, Windows) of text documents. The "View" menu allows you to configure Notepad++ to show line ending characters, to show white-spaces, and even to show all the characters that normally wouldn't be shown in Windows Notepad. Notepad++ has a built-in HEX-editor, which you can use for editing binary files.

Among other things, the application supports block comments, function completion, TAB removal, and bookmarks. One of the most useful features is the macro recorder. It allows you to record key-presses and then play them back later. I used this feature for removing each second row from a text file and it worked flawlessly.

Here are v4.7 fixed bugs and added features (from v4.6) :

1.Make the "recovery system" for 3 mandatory xml files (config.xml, langs.xml and stylers.xml) to prevent the fail loading due to the corrupted files.
2.Extend plugin capacity - add the Scintilla external lexer capacity.
3.Add the ability to hide the tab bar with "-notabbar" flag in command line (ie. Notepad style).
4.Column selection is remembered now while switching among the files. As well this settings will be stored in the next session.
5.Add 2 Commends (beside Toggle Comment) Comment (Ctrl+K) and Uncomment (Ctrl+Shift+K).
6.Change "UTF8 without BOM" menu item behaviour.
7.Fix the hiding bug while launch time because of change of environment from duel monitors to mono monitor.
8.Remove vista UAC warning for GUP. Add "Update Notepad++" menu item.
9.Add NPPM_HIDETABBAR and NPPM_ISTABBARHIDE plugins messages.
10.Add NPPM_GETNPPVERSION message for plugin system.
11.Enhance the horizontal scroll feature.
12.Change Find in files behaviour : all the hidden directory won't be searched (for example : .svn).
13.Add build date-time in about box.
14.Fix a bug where a file with 2 or more consecutive spaces gives problems with sessions and history.
15.Fix the problem where opening a file when in save as dialog saves the wrong file.
