@Vitaliy-Dovgan good point. But that as i see it would only make the jump table more inefficient. A full comparison i taking place on every potential match

Also when you look at the charat() both in my link and on the Document class it is delegating to it seems to be operating on char.

@Attila-Schulcz

if you already use an excel file why not using it’s internal language (VBA I assume)?
Does it really make sense using npp for this?

Well that sure would be nice ;)

Is there a option to install plugins unattended? Using command line?

No. Other than manually (or using a script) copying DLLs and files into the appropriate location…which is all the PluginManager does.

Even setting allowAppDataPlugins.xml some files still needed to put into main directory under Program Files

This is true although the majority of plugins are perfectly fine using the app data directory.

Or should we grant rights for users to NPP main dir?

That’s completely up to you.
