Let me clarify a bit. I’ve seen a lot of cases where people have this question about programs licensed under the GPL and plugins. So I’ve always just referred to that particular section of the website. So if you’ve found some other resources or know other information I’d really be interested.

You’re welcome.

You can try one of the other versions I’ve referred you to.

You need to be using a versioning system instead such as Git or Mercurial. It requires some learning but it is time well spent.

Hello Claudia,

Thank you for the explanation. You know, men can get curious too. :)

And now I just can’t help it.
After explaining the process of reasoning leading to her famous deductions, Shirley Holmes’ insights seemed to lose some of their former glamour.
But then on a second thought the shine became even brighter.

Well, I assumed you had performed some searches and tests.
Now that I know the scale of those actions, my gratitude grows and deepens.

And finally, rocket science would be no “rocket science” for you. :)

Best regards.

I think the answer to your question is “Yes”. My reason for saying that is that when you write your own code in a plugin you can make it do almost anything.

However, “Yes” on its own it not a very useful answer.

What is your real question? The opening sentence asks about the “atom.io” editor. The last two sentences refer to Notepad++. Nothing between them mentions either editor. You know that Notepad++ is written by volunteers and enthusiasts. They continually work to enhance Notepad++ with the features that inspire them. If you really want your suggestions added then you could either (a) write you own plugin (or plugins) to do what you want; or (b) describe the features in a way that inspires someone else, or © pay someone.

Thank you @Claudia-Frank
