      Nobody has ever said they were bad ideas. Also he has posted these several times (some of which I’ve replied to) so alot of the initial feedback is in those original posts.

        dail pls stop lie:
        “alot of the initial feedback is in those original posts”

        considering your words, i can only remember a ‘text air’ posts. means nothing will be solved, changed, moved forward.

        some posters (not many, there were always just few posters) admitted it’s needed to happen, but what we need - is to lure interest of Don Ho to code those changes.

        and in conclusion to better understand me:
        i’m not bossy crying kid as you see me.
        i just care a lot about this notepad. because i know it’s really good program and it deserves to fix things and get better. if not, it will die.
        and i can’t let it die. i really can’t because i need it for my work, but again - i’m not experienced programmer. and in next few years still won’t be.
        so only thing i can do, is write about it, put people together for good goal.

        but you all are acting against me, rather than supporing me. those suggestions are good for you all, so why are you making from me your enemy ?

          Has anybody other contact on Don Ho ? Other from official email on NP++ webpage. He seems ignore that email.

          I like very much my suggestions and I’m really sure it’s very good points to improve.
          But that wasting time of nothing happening from one month to another month, is true devastating for me.

          Please help me propagate more these changes.
          If you have friends who code and use this notepad, tell them about this community forum and link them my topic. I believe, they will appreciate it.

          Thank you anybody

            I have Notepad 6.5.5. Would it be possible to have numbered bookmarks like other editors use the number keys for bookmarks? CONTROL-SHIFT-1 would set the bookmark, CONTROL-1 would go to the bookmark. This is really handy because in PSPad (and other editors which use numbered bookmarks) I always use ^1 for the top of my main program (which is below a bunch of comments) and ^2 for the top of my main variable declarations.

            Or am I missing something in a newer version of NPP?

            Thanks! I love the editor.

            (Ah. So this does use markdown.)

              There is a plugin called “Named Bookmarks” - you can find it in the Plugin Manager. I haven’t used it myself but you can try and see if it is of any help to you.

                  For everybody to let you know. After debate with Kasper, I came in conclusion, that plugins will only get things complicated. Because it’s nonsense to have different plugin for every partial job we need to NP++ do.
                  Only reasonable way, is to implement it directly to NP++ enviroment. Use features straight from program by default. But we can’t do it without Don Ho.
                  So we are screwed …

                    No John, some features can easily be implemented in plugins. And no you are not screwed, its open source, its free.

                      Nothing has been changing since months ago, I proposed some of those changes. Slowly but surely, I’m losing interest in this crap.

                        John, your suggestions for features are interesting and they may be useful for a few people. But please remember that Notepad++ is written by enthusiasts who give their time and effort for free. Using the word “crap” to describe their efforts is very disrespectful of them and of the huge amount of work they do. I use Notepad++ almost every day and I have not found the need for the features you suggest. I have not seen anyone else writing that they MUST have the features you suggest.

                        Notepad++ is open source, you could enhance the program yourself to add the features you want and, optionally, publish those updates so that they could be included in a future release. Kasper has offered to help with a plugin to provide the features you want. Once written plugins are easy to install, there should not be any complications with a well written plugin.
