and a save option

As to saving, there’s a method here, although it is probably not for noobs.

How to developed a NPP plugin with example

it’s depend on what kind of language (c# , c++ , pascal )you are knows

hello word plugin template using Lazarus is here

Thank you Alan

@pnedev and @dinkumoil
Thank you both for your help, it is now working beautifully as expected. I have removed the unnecessary hToolBarIcon and converted the icons to BMP format.

I would script this from the command line probably in Perl - in fact, I already have.

@justdudeone
I think you should read @Ekopalypse arguments carefully.

But let me try to give you a specific example: I fetch everyday a nightly log from our build server named build_<date>.log. E.g. build_18082019.log. I open it with Notepad++ and observe it. I close Notepad++. I delete the file since I no longer need it locally.

With your proposed solution within a year Notepad++ will remember within its auto-session 365 files that will never reappear again and spend considerable amount of time trying to open each of these files. I will not be aware of this list of files that Notepad++ tries to open in the background (other then noticing that Notepad++ becomes SLOW). The example could be modified to using files over network shares which can be even more catastrophic due to occasional VERY long network timeouts.

Try to be a little less egocentric and realize that Notepad++ needs to balance different requirements of thousands of usage patterns.

Maybe @Ekopalypse 's suggestion to create the .ini file will go somewhere if the OP is trying it?

Created LocationNavigate.ini in c:\notepad++\plugins\config as per Ekopalypse’s post. No luck.

It isn’t for C#, but just going to be written in C#. I am a C# developer, though I can code in php, java, python, are various other languages, I would love to code in the language I use daily.

I have a few ideas for plugins, such as section finder in np++. https://github.com/rhyous/SectionFinder, which is already written in C#.

@chcg many thank

NppFTP is a very good tool, but still does not support scp properly, and using public/private key authentication is still a struggle, or at least I cant get it to work. I use it at home for certain servers, but at work I prefer WinSCP and NPP when not using vim.

I hope this thread will inspire some plugin developer to integrate shellcheck into a plugin, have some kind of line highlighting or popup/tooltip type popup showing the output of shellcheck validation, maybe even a autoreplace text, which needs to be used with care :-)

Maybe worth pointing to that template…

@gurikbal-singh Even when I set useShellExecute to false, the python script is still not being invoked. The txt file that my python script is supposed to generate cannot be found anywhere. Any advice on how to resolve this issue?

@Jairam-P-Jidgekar

Not quiet clear to which auto scroll functionality you refer to as there is a synchronized scroll functionality in npp and there is a plugin called compare which addresses this as well. Which one doesn’t do what you want? Btw. post your debug-info, which can be found under the ? menu (last menu item) if you need additional help.

Most kind. Thank you!

That’ll work…

welcome to the notepad++ community, @Oliver-Christes

nppftp seems to work fine on 7.7 and 7.7.1.
but if you have recently updated from notepad++ 7.5.9 or below, you will have to migrate or reinstall your plugins.

easiest way is to reinstall nppftp using the notepad++ menu plugins > plugins admin.

your config file containing your ftp server list and credentials should remain in %AppData%\Notepad++\plugins\config\NppFTP\NppFTP.xml.
(path of a regular notepad++ installation)

best regards.

Well, it seems no matter what I try, I cannot get the nppColdFusion plugin to work with 7.7 at all. So Randy DiCotti - would you be willing to share your exported UDL with us? I’d be very grateful if you would.

Thanks.
