notepad++

Notepad++ is a free (as in "free speech" and also as in "free beer") source code editor and Notepad replacement that supports several languages. Running in the MS Windows environment, its use is governed by GPL License.

Based on the powerful editing component Scintilla, Notepad++ is written in C++ and uses pure Win32 API and STL which ensures a higher execution speed and smaller program size. By optimizing as many routines as possible without losing user friendliness, Notepad++ is trying to reduce the world carbon dioxide emissions. When using less CPU power, the PC can throttle down and reduce power consumption, resulting in a greener environment.

Changes in Notepad++ 7.3:

  • A MD5 generator is available in Notepad++ v7.3 as build-in feature. (menu Tools->MD5)
  • It allows user to generate MD5 digest from a text or from a (some) file(s).
  • Of course MD5 digest of Notepad++ release binaries will be available from this version (beside of sha1).

Notepad++ 7.3.1 changelog:

  • In the previous version, "Geneate MD5 fom text dialog" geneated wrong result on non ANSI characters (Unicode text). This bug has been fixed in this release.
  • An enhancement for customizing of Word characters is added in this version: While double-clicking to select or searching with "Match whole word only" option, the selected characters stop on non-word characters. With this enhancement, users can include any non-word character into word character set, in order to change its default behaviour.
