    Windows has a builtin way to specify the starting directory for any shortcut you run – and I am assuming that since you claim to be loading a blank NPP window, you’re loading from a shortcut instead of from a Right Click menu.

    To change the Windows default directory, Right Click on your shortcut, select Properties (‡), go to the Start In field, and enter the directory you’d like to be your default

    ‡: For a normal shortcut, like on your desktop, you just have to select Properties. If the shortcut is pinned to your taskbar (like it is for me), RClick, then RClick on “notepad++” near the bottom of the menu, then select Properties. If it’s in your Start Menu (either pinned to the quick start area, or if you go down to N > Notepad++), then RClick on the icon, select More, select Open File Location; this should open Windows Explorer in the directory where that shortcut actually lives. In that Windows Explorer, you can RClick on Notepad++ shortcut and select the Properties, as above.

    I, too, think portable for one is probably your best choice.

    If you want to primarily use 32-bit, but start experimenting with 64-bit, then I would leave 32-bit installed, and run 64-bit from portable. If you want to primarily use 64-bit, but want 32-bit available for non-64b plugins, then install 64-bit, check registry settings (64bit on Win10 doesn’t always associate properly: see this thread and others it references), then put 32-bit into a portable directory. This should keep all your 64-bit settings the same as you used to have on 32-bit.

    After making the portable directory, you’ll then need to install plugins for your portable (as @chcg said). Also, if you want the same settings, you can copy the XML configuration files from %AppData%\Notepad++ to the portable directory.

    Good luck.

    And please search for this first in the reported bugs, before creating a new one. I’m sure it already exists…and you can add any new info to an existing issue if you think it is deficient.

    if we want to know…how many characters…the longest line of a file, simply use…the mathematical bissection/dichotomy method

    Well…that’s a whole lot of trial and error work. How about a little Pythonscript?:

    longest_line_length = 0 shortest_line_length = None def fel(line_contents, line_number, total_lines): global longest_line_length, shortest_line_length line_contents = line_contents.rstrip() # remove line-ending llc = len(line_contents) if llc > longest_line_length: longest_line_length = llc if shortest_line_length == None: shortest_line_length = llc if llc < shortest_line_length: shortest_line_length = llc editor.forEachLine(fel) notepad.messageBox('The longest line in the current file is {}; the shortest is {}.'.format(longest_line_length, shortest_line_length), 'INFO')

    When run it pops up a box with the results, for example:

    Add already ready implementation of parser for pascal:

    I’m the author of the PR you mentioned. It is not a ready implementation. It works in some cases and in other cases it doesn’t. That’s the reason why I’ve closed this PR, I wasn’t able to get it production-ready and thus it should not make its way into a release of Notepad++. It would only lead to a huge amount of support/bug fixing requests.

    But maybe you are able to improve the parser, feel free to do that. If you decide to do so, be aware that you also have to provide Pascal source files for testing and verifying the parser. This is the new policy for releasing FunctionList parsers.

    I just edited the xml file and for some reason, now I have the strange characters back in the autocompletion. The header is still showing UTF-8, the xml file is encodeed itself in UTF-8.
    I have tried using the &-entities but they are shown as text

    Hello, @tokiedian-steelpanthers,

    Your default Noto Mono font does not reproduce the glyphs of the Unicode IPA Extensions block characters, below :

    http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0250.pdf

    Here are, below, a table with a summary of some monospaced fonts, which represent all IPA extensions characters, properly

    For the record, you may, also, refer to :

    The two MS Mincho and MS Gothic fonts, which can handle the Japanese Hiragana and Katakata characters

    The proportional  fonts Lucida Sans Unicode and Microsoft Sans Serif, which both support the IPA Extensions characters, too
