Notepad++ rocks!

Can't believe I've been farting around in notepad all these years. I'm actually beginning to understand how php works when I see it in notepad++

cool.

Yes, I use it too, it is nice and not overly complex.

even just having line numbers and multiple docs on tabs is cool, let alone code highlighting and foldaways. I haven't even explored the other stuff yet.

Another good one (I think better) is www.textpad.com

I still prefer notepad. But i'm a traditionalist.

I use textpad all the time, especcially to print out Blitz source code with olour highlighting.
I created syntax files for it for Blitz & Cobra

I use notepad to make notes on all of you - I use individual ones where I just add stuff to them - mainly behavioural stuff.

puki: cool, so can I expect to see myself accurately simulated as an Orc Shamen in your next MMORPG using Oblivion media?

my favourite is this:

Hey GA and Gfk, did you notice the command wrap isn't highlighted in Notepad++?

<textarea wrap="virtual"></textarea>

Odd indeed. Btw, Notepadd++ really does rock.

Hmm...I don't see the difference between physical and virtual wrap.

I was just going to post something about notepad...
Open any file possible with it. You get some weird stuff. Weird stuff.

I've been using EditPlus ( http://www.editplus.com ) since, hmm, the dawn of time. Not only does it support syntax highlighting for approximately six billion languages, but it's small, fast, user-friendly and highly, highly customizable. Along with ThumbNailer from SmallerAnimals, EditPlus is one of the best software investments I've ever made.

I'm guessing that's because Notepad++ doesn't highlight make believe attributes?

Yes well that might be because it's being silently ignored by the browser.

So you're implying that if a command isn't highlighted then it is make believe? Try typing in <?php mail() ?>. It doesn't get highlighted but works just fine. :p

I haven't used NP++ that extensively yet, but I'm guessing that you can't have HTML *and* PHP highlighting on at the same time.

Or maybe you can?? I dunno. :p
