Are you copying the files manually? Or by PluginManager?

Is the observed crash of Snippets the known one https://github.com/ffes/nppsnippets/issues/14 ? Or a new one for which you might create an new issue to get it fixed.

To get good help, you’re probably going to have to show a bit more data. Sure, some ambitious people here could make some guesses (i.e., do a lot of mental work), but why put them thru that?

Put 4 spaces on the front of every line of data in Notepad++ before copying and pasting here, for best results. If you see a black background on your data in the preview pane as you are composing your post, you are doing it right. Such a black box would look like this:

I acutally have 4 spaces before the "I", when I was Composed Me, too, but before my "M"

@Ben-Saunders

seems to be a known issue which can be solved updating the plugin.

@vinsworldcom178

I haven’t used MinGW for windows builds so can’t say for sure what your problem is.
But I have described here what I have done to build npp and scintilla with VS2017 community edition.
The steps for plugins should be quite similar.
A more detailed version include a lot of screenshots can be downloaded or viewed from here

If something is unclear, let us know. (together with the name of the plugin you tried to build)

Cheers

You are asking a FAQ.

It unzips fine for me.

Thank you very much to Peter Jones .
I will work through your options

Good news: I’ve received an email by @bruderstein. He will try to fix the cert error as soon as possible.

If you go to notepad-plus-plus.org and click on “resources” on the left side and scroll down to “User Defined Languages” there’s a link that takes you to the wiki page for UDLs. Unity3d is in the list. At the end of the list there are directions on how to install a UDL. C# is included with NPP. If you’re not looking for two different languages but one super specific flavor of Unity3d, you may have to edit an existing UDL or create your own.

Good Luck

As a follow on, I found a couple minutes to play a bit with the pretty-print and validate: the pretty-print does seem to work on a selection; the validate seemed to use the whole document, even when I just had the small segment selected. Though since I’m not good at XML, I could be wrong in my interpretation.

However, while the XML Tools pretty-print does work with individual selections, I had forgotten you said there may be thousands, which means it won’t be very efficient. I think the three-step search+replace/xml tools/search+replace is probably the best in-Notepad++ option.
