in the NppExec Console says:
COMMAND: npp_save USAGE: npp_save npp_save <file> DESCRIPTION: 1. Saves current file ("npp_save" without parameters) 2. Saves specified file if it's opened in Notepad++ (supports a partial file path/name) EXAMPLES: npp_save // saves current file npp_save $(#2) // saves 2nd file opened in Notepad++ npp_save txt // saves a first file which contains "txt" in its name SEE ALSO: npp_saveas, npp_saveall, npp_open Typing help cdin the NppExec Console says:
COMMAND: cd USAGE: cd cd <relative_path> cd <absolute_path> DESCRIPTION: 1. Changes current directory ("cd" with parameters) 2. Shows current directory path ("cd" without parameters) EXAMPLES: cd // shows current directory path cd .. // go to up-directory cd \ // go to root-directory cd $(NPP_DIRECTORY) // go to notepad++'s directory cd e:\temp // change drive and directory SEE ALSO: dir Typing help npp_runin the NppExec Console says:
COMMAND: npp_run USAGE: npp_run <command> npp_run <file> DESCRIPTION: 1. The same as Notepad++'s Run command - runs an external process 2. Opens specified file in its associated program (requires NppExec v0.2 RC3.1 or higher) EXAMPLES: npp_run calc.exe (*) * if you type just "calc.exe" without "npp_run", then NppExec runs "calc.exe" as a child process and waits until it returns (i.e. until you close the calc's window) npp_run "index.html" // opens "index.html" in your default web-browser npp_run "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" "index.html" // in Firefox npp_run "$(FULL_CURRENT_PATH)" // opening using the associated program REMARKS: In terms of an application (a program), NPP_RUN allows to run it in its own window without waiting for its execution: npp_run application.exe npp_run application.exe <arguments> If, however, there is a need to wait until the application has been executed, while still running it in its own window, it can be achieved without NPP_RUN: cmd /c start /wait application.exe cmd /c start /wait application.exe <arguments> In this last case, NppExec waits for cmd to be executed, while cmd itself starts the application in its own separate window and waits until it has been executed.
