    @minneyb-unix Maybe an antivirus or similar problem. Yesterday, I had some false-positives even while trying to download N++ GitHub artifacts. I checked these "notepad++.exe"s via VirusTotal and these were flagged (only by the MS own Defender engine). Now it’s ok, so I’d try again.

    Corrupted Session Starting in Notepad++ v8.6.5, it will store session.xml.inCaseOfCorruption.bak next to session.xml, and will automatically use that if session.xml is corrupted. However, if you ever find that you open Notepad++ (especially after an update or a system crash) and find that the files opened weren’t in the same state as when you let them, you can try this procedure: Exit Notepad++ Windows Explorer, go to %AppData%\Notepad++ (or in your appropriate config-file location if you aren’t using AppData for config) Rename session.xml to session.xml--keep Copy session.xml.inCaseOfCorruption.bak to session.xml Run Notepad++ → If it’s now showing the right copy of your files, great! If not, exit Notepad++, delete session.xml, and rename session.xml--keep back to session.xml .

    @rdipardo , I got a statement of sorts in regard to this request, specifically, this comment: Using AI to create a PR for an open source project - is it a good thing or a bad thing? I have no judgement on that. For me, the only criterion that matters is whether the merged code will be maintainable in the future. On this point, I have to say that AI-generated PRs (I can usually tell during code review), often do not meet the critera in their current state - but many human devs don’t either.

    Hello, @coises and All, Thank you very much, @coises, for your valuable advice ! As I already used a user definitions file, named Definitions.json5, containing the main examples from the documentation : Before starting N++, I simply included your modified implicit combining rules section to the definitions.json5 file, described below : { // A user definitions file is a JSONC file containing pairs of keys and values // listing what you type after the Compose key and what Compose types in response. // Each pair except the last must be followed by a comma. // Two forward slashes begin a comment: Compose for Notepad++ ignores // the slashes and everything after them on the same line. // You can use the standard escapes \n (new line), \r (return), \t (tab), // \" (quote within a quoted string) and \\ (backslash within a quoted string). // You can also use Unicode escapes, \u followed by four hexadecimal digits, // for example: "\u20ac" for "€", the Euro sign. Escape sequences for characters // outside the basic multilingual plane (code points 0x10000 or greater) // can only be entered as a UTF-16 surrogate pair. // You should save this file with a .jsonc extension. // Compose for Notepad++ reads the file each time you launch Notepad++, // so be sure to save it in a place where it won't be disturbed. "implicit combining rules" : { "'" : ["\u0301", "\u030B", true , "\u0317"], // acute accent | double | same as plain | acute accent below ")" : ["\u0306", false , true , "\u032E"], // breve | - | same as plain | breve below ">" : ["\u030C", false , true , "\u032C"], // caron/hacek | - | same as plain | caron/hacek below "," : ["\u0327", false , "\u0313", "\u0326"], // cedilla | - | comma above | comma below "ç" : ["\u0302", false , true , "\u032D"], // circumflex | - | same as plain | circumflex below "\"": ["\u0308", false , true , "\u0324"], // diaeresis | - | same as plain | diaeresis below "." : ["\u0307", false , true , "\u0323"], // dot above | - | same as plain | dot below "è" : ["\u0300", "\u030F", true , "\u0316"], // grave accent | double | same as plain | grave accent below "?" : ["\u0309", false , true , false ], // hook above | - | same as plain | - "+" : ["\u031B", false , true , false ], // horn | - | same as plain | - "-" : ["\u0304", false , true , "\u0331"], // macron | - | same as plain | macron below ";" : ["\u0328", false , "\u1DCE", true ], // ogonek | - | ogonnek above | same as plain "*" : ["\u030A", false , true , "\u0325"], // ring above | - | same as plain | ring below "é" : ["\u0303", false , true , "\u0330"], // tilde | - | same as plain | tilde below "_" : ["\u0332", "\u0333", "\u0305", true ] // underline | double | overline | same as plain }, "CC" : "\u2102", // double-struck capital C "rx" : "℞", // prescription symbol "dia" : "💎", // diamond symbol "br" : "Best Regards,\r\n\r\nguy038\r\n" // End of Post } Then, I started N++. To be sure that this json file was correct : I ran the Plugins > Compose > User definitions file... option. I clicked on the Select button. => No error occured ;-) And, indeed, no need to use the |Alt Gr] key and the [SP] key anymore, within the implicit combining rules section, on my French keyboard ! So, I also updated the main_Compose.txt file, in my Google drive account, which can be downloaded from the same address as before. Best Regards, guy038
