      Hi,

      I am new to programming. I want to contribute to this amazing community. But I am having problem understanding the code. Please suggest me what documents of npp should I go through. Or just tell me which cpp file has the main() function. So that I can figure out from there on.

        afaik, winmain.cpp is the file you are looking for and the main entry point is

        int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE, LPSTR, int)

        but as I’m not a cpp programmer I might be wrong.

        Cheers
        Claudia

          If you can’t find main() on your own, I don’t have high hopes for you understanding the source code. :)
