Notepad++ (32-bit) for Windows

User Reviews

• It's free and you get what you pay for

  PC50001December 12, 2017

  Pros

  You can edit files

  Cons

  Very cumbersome to customize, counter-intuitive. Lots of useless features, but doesn't even have an easy option to search text up and down. Interface designed by community - which means some people who have zero design experience contributed to interface design.

• Versatile, user friendly, and adaptive.

  DementedpenguinMay 27, 2015

  Pros

  Flexible, adaptive, works well with many different coding languages, good plugins, made with the user in mind. For example: when Notepad++ updates and reinstalls all of your work space is saved.

  Cons

  None so far.

  Summary

  I use Notepad++ for R and Ruby code.

  Good syntax highlight, tabbed interface, unicode support.

• Simply the best. Always.

  Pros

  It's definitely the best HTML editor ever. Unbeatable, a true classic.

  Cons

  Frankly, none.

• Hard to find a better editor

  DynVOctober 29, 2014

  Pros

  There's really nothing missing.

  Cons

  Perhaps some more languages could be added. Although a bunch of the most popular languages is set up for syntax highlighting. Even with this slight shortcoming there's a workaround, as one can make a user defined language.

  Summary

  Of course there's editor suite with documentation, contextual help, auto-complete, tool integration (compiler for programming, interpreter for scripting, etc.), etc. But removing everything else from those fancy packages and only keeping the editors, you'd be hard pressed to find something better than NPP (how I shorten this software name). There's--some--auto-completion, browser launchers, an integrated FTP client and macro but I doubt this software make a claim to be more than a simple editor, which it does really well.

• Great Text Editor

  scarycellOctober 19, 2014

  Pros

  It has many features; it is a tabbed program, user friendly, supports many programming languages. AND IT IS FREE. (As in "free speech" and also "free beer")

  Cons

  Really can't think of any.

  Summary

  Great for people new to programming and more advanced users. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a good, free text editor.

• Excellent tool for my needs

  lenecbyJune 2, 2014

  Pros

  Tabbed files for easy navigation between multiple files. Great basic text and html editor.

  Cons

  It would be nice if it handled larger files better. The program can bog down for me sometimes.

• Fast, Versatile, Fully Customizable! LOVE IT!

  luminaiaMarch 23, 2014

  Pros

  I make my living with it. It does everything I want it to do - from coding html, php, javascript, auto-syncing with the server, search and replace through multiple files (very fast), countless plugins, easily customizable... I can't say enough. Loads quick, very very rarely crashes. Take the time, learn it's ins and outs. Customize it for you. Consider using it with Texter (auto complete 3rd party tool) for the ultimate coding platform.

  Cons

  Would like a slightly more advanced FTP plugin. The NPPFTP plugin is good, but would love to have a bulk file upload option.
