Bluefish is great for HTMl and CSS, but is a bad option for PHP. I will go with Geany, but the truth is that Notepad++ is a great code editor, fast light and have some nice tools. So it would be nice if someone port it to Linux.

Where To Find Notepad++ For Linux ?

XIII
I'm searching 2 days ago trying to find notepad++ for linux but i couldn't find it yet, does anyone know or have this great software?, ofcourse i have it on windows, but i don't use windows so much time, most times i'm on linux so i need it to be run on linux.
P.S: i don't use WINE so please don't recommend it smile.gif

If you have been sreaching for 2 days and can't find it, I would assume it doesn't exist in a linux compatible version. Even though you said not to, I'd suggest just using wine tongue.gif Obviouly you'd really like to use this software if you've looked for 2 days, so instead of searching for another day just spend a few minutes figuring out wine and voila. The software looks fairly striaghtforward on their site so I assume it would be emulated without any problems.

Go to the notepad++ forum and ask for a Linux version. If this versions is not written yet, try crying and ask for writing it.
The nopedad++ forum is here http://sourceforge.net/forum/?group_id=95717
(found after 13 seconds googling).

or try to port it yourself, their using MingW, which is gcc on Windows, so I guess you can easily port it.

QUOTE

To build this package:

* For generating the executable file (notepad++.exe), you can use VC++ 7 or MinGW 3.0 / 2.X (a makefile is available)

* For generating the dll files (SciLexer.dll) , you have to use MinGW 3.0 / 2.X

All the binaries will be built in the directory notepad++\PowerEditor\bin

Note that the executable file npp.exe built by MinGW 3.0, for the reason of
the runtime lib static-link, has almost 160KB more than the one built by VC++ 7.

There's no remedy for the moment. If you can reduce the exe size by adding/changing
the compiler flag or linker flag, please let me know.

What's so great about notepad++ that it replaces all the other editors available for Linux?

Remember I have not used notepad++ but am just looking into it, especially the porting side of things, that's something I enjoy doing.

Also noticed from it's website that it used part of Scintilla, how does ScinTE differ to Notepad++ since that would be interesting to know. Could turn out that writing a new editor using Scintilla might be more effective than porting Notepad++?

I was thinking, if you have Kate (Advanced Editor for KDE) then why do you want notepad++

You know, I am going to scream. WHY ON EARTH USE KATE FOR coding...

How about VIm - you can install it with gui for gnome or kde... Glimmer (which is the proggie I started my first website with).. Or if you prefer a more all around - code completion etc - try Bluefish.

If you dont like downloading extra stuff... Open a terminal, type vi <filename.extension> and there you go smile.gif (without the < >) Be advised in Vi, you need to hit the Ins key to type, and Esc to leave the typing mode. To exit the file and save.. hit Esc then type ":wq!" : is to execute a command, w for write, q for quit and ! to force it so it's not fussing.

Just been looking at the screenshots for Notepad++ and there's really nothing impressive seen from the screenshots, so I take it, it must be the features it has?

I would say Quanta Plus and Bluefish would probably be editors that come close to Notepad++, so there maybe no need to actually port Notepad++ over to Linux.

I agree that KATE is not really a good code editor, but it is a simple text editor that has some syntax features that would make it acceptable, same would go for the Gnome Editor (gedit).

Cheers,

Moonwitch, I use Kate for my programming/editing, it's just as great as other editors IMO.

People have to get familiar with vi, the default text editor with any Unix or Linux computer in the world.

and a replacement for edit.exe?
Where To Find Notepad++ For Linux ?

May sound crazy but I miss edit.Exe from win. Like the ability to start writing wherever you liked creating tabbed paragraphs and unlimited length of line, no distractions and custom colors. What would be a good replacement of edit.Exe?

Actually thats why I use npp on win .. You can create your own color scheme and tabbed paragraphs .. I write a lot and I tag and tab my writing as xml-like code

Any suggestions?
