I unzipped the v6.9.2, and looked a bit: docMonitor was one of Don’s old plugins that he didn’t bother continuing development on when he moved Notepad++ from sourceforge to GitHub, because the feature of updating files every few seconds is already built into Notepad++, even in the old v6.9.2. DSpellCheck.dll and SpellChecker.dll are two different spell-checker plugins. There’s no reason to have both. DSpellCheck allows either the Hunspell dictionary, or the Aspell dictionary (which is what ShellChecker.dll uses), or Windows’ built in spell-checking files (which is what Word and similar use). There’s no reason to have both, even in the old v6.9.2. It is possible to add a keyboard shortcut to any of NppTextFX commands – use the Settings > Shortcut Mapper, go to Plugin Commands, and look for the TextFX command (like Convert quotes to "), and you can Modify those to have a keystroke for that single command I verified that even the most-recent NppUISpy here has the 32-bit version (..._UNI.zip) which, if you unzip the DLL into your plugins directory, will allow you to use UISpy even on your old Notepad++. And I confirmed that the macro syntax was enough the same that the FAQ’s section on manually editing the macro will allow you to embed for example, for my portable v6.9.2, with the plugins I installed, UISpy told me TextFX > TextFX Characters > Convert quotes to ’ was at 22030 (it will almost certainly be at a different ID for you, because I didn’t grab all the same plugins that you had). But for me, I could then have a macro that would do the Select All then Convert quotes to ’ with the following macro source: <Macro name="AllSingleQuote" Ctrl="no" Alt="no" Shift="no" Key="0"> <Action type="0" message="2013" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam="" /> <Action type="2" message="0" wParam="22030" lParam="0" sParam="" /> </Macro> so after saving that, and restarting Notepad++, I had a new macro which would correctly run the NppTextFX command. So it’s possible to do what you want in Notepad++ v6.9.2. But I still highly recommend uninstalling the outdated, insecure version, grab the most recent 64-bit version, and bring yourself into the 2020s.

@Darren-Hoyland , The User Defined Language Collection lists “Fanuc”, and taking a quick look, it does seem to have GCODE-like codes, so I’m guessing that’s what you want. The UDL Collection’s README has a section on using a UDL from the Collection: my recommendation is to install my “CollectionInterface” plugin, which makes it really easy to install UDLs from the Collection; but the README also includes manual instructions.

@Thorin-Schmidt , That sounds similar to Issue #18093, where the seemingly-random unfolding was happening for a UDL instead of for Python. In that issue, it’s because of the presence of a comment in the second block (but my experiment below shows that’s not the case for the python folding… at least, not the sole cause) I don’t know if it’s related or not. Can you share a small piece of code (maybe 3 blocks long) that shows the problem if that’s all you have in the file? For example, I cannot replicate your problem with def first(): more() return def more(): # commented pass def most(): first() more() return I will have to manually fold every. single. function Well, that’s the easy part. Alt+0 folds everything with one keystroke (the default keystroke for View > Fold All).
