[New Plugin] NppOpenAI
-
@sdsds-rgdsfds Hi!
I think the paragraph (line) highlighting is a Notepad++ feature; you can check it out by clicking Preferences » Editing » Current Line Indicator section (see: top left) » Highlight Background radio button.
Idk how to append the surrounding text to the selected message, but maybe a similar setting could manage this (example only, NOT working feature!):
Besides, the “Preview alternatives” is a very good idea as OpenAI supports multiple responses. It could work like the N++ Auto-Completion feature.
However, I’d like to finish chat support (no, my VIP/SOS/etc. projects first ><), and I’ve a plan for a GUI to configure the plugin settings easier. At the same time, I’ll keep your feature requests / ideas in mind!

@Richárd-Stockinger Thanks really man ! I’m hyped up.

@Richárd-Stockinger Hi, thanks for the nice plugin. I also run into a problem when I change the model to gpt-4-turbo. Should I change something in the ini file?
-
@Kimin-Park Hi!
Sorry for the late reply! ^^’
If you get “The model
gpt-4-turbodoes not exist” message, trygpt-4-turbo-previeworgpt-4-0125-preview. Unfortunatelygpt-4-turbomodel is not (yet) available.The available GPT-4 (Turbo) models are listed here:

gpt-4-turbo-preview
I tried your suggestions, and still for me it does not give any message, the app just shuts down after a few seconds of waiting with the message like ‘please wait for the response from openai’. Only gpt-3.5-turbo works for me yet, probably my installed version might have some issue, I am using windows 11. Anyway, thanks a lot for the reply and again for the nice plugin!

It seems, you’re using an earlier version of NppOpenAI, e.g. v0.2.1 (you can check it out by clicking: Plugins menu » NppOpenAI » About).
A new version should be available in Plugins Admin: Plugins menu » Plugins Admin… » Updates tab.
Please try to update the plugin, it should solve the problem; a similar bug has been fixed in v0.2.1.1.
-
Now it works for me! Previously I installed your plugin through the Notepad++'s plugin admin, and it installed an older version. With 0.2.1.2 update following your suggestion, now gpt-4-turbo works. Thanks a lot!
-
@Kimin-Park You’re welcome! :)
It worths to mention that a newer v0.3.0.1 version is also available, which supports OpenAI system messages (aka. “instructions”), and contains several small bugfixes too.
-
@Richárd-Stockinger
Thanks again! I was struggling with instructions, and it is solved again. :) -
Thats just a google search, not an OpenAI reply…

@Richárd-Stockinger
Do you need to pay openai to use this service, or is there a free engine that we could put in the config file ? -
@rothlis18
OpenAI (ChatGPT API) has a one-time “free tier” (trial?) mode which is available for a few months after registration:
https://community.openai.com/t/understanding-api-limits-and-free-tier/498517I don’t know much about other AI engines, but someone asked me once about NppOpenAI’s Ollama support, and this may work with a PHP proxy (see the answer of the issue too):

@Chr-Pqe I would love to see these features too. Any thoughts on these @Richárd-Stockinger ?
Thanks

@pixelloop
I’ve created a kanban for NppOpenAI, and there is an Auto-Complete for multiple OpenAI responses task, which is similar to this feature.Until then alternatively you can use the “Instructions” feature to optimize your code, like this:

Could you pls update to GPT-4o mini or GPT-4o

Running OpenAI ChatGPT in NotePad ++ without a plugin
Hello everyone
If you want to use ChatGPT with Notepad ++, this may be of interest.
There is a program out called CotranslatorAI that can run with any text program running on Windows, as it can copy and send selected text to the OpenAI API, get a reply and even automatically paste the reply into the program you are running (NotePad++, Word, Excel, Outlook, a CAT tool etc.)
There is an extensive library of prompts which you are encouraged to add your own prompts too, and each prompt can be given a shortcut and shortcut action (load, send, paste response)
So you can use it to translate or transform text in NotePad++, depending on the prompt you load.
Essentially, CotranslatorAI acts like a plug-in to any program even though it is not.
The Starter version does not even require your bank details, so you are safe, and the programmer is well-known in the translation industry. This program is completely safe and AI requests are sent directly to OpenAI, and do not go via the company.
Just for your info
Dave Neve

update: moderator moved this into this discussion, where it’s at least reasonably relevant -
When posted as a standalone “Topic”, your post was borderline off-topic. (If you had replaced “Notepad++” with “VSCode” or any other text-editor name throughout, the essential content would not have changed meaningfully; that’s generally a good test to indicate that a post is off topic for a Notepad++ forum.)
However, given I remembered this plugin discussion existed, I thought your post would be a tolerable addendum to this NppOpenAI Plugin discussion, rather than trying to stand on its own, so I used moderator power to move it here.
The plugin description in the GitHub repo says that it requires an API Key, which some may not want to have to sign up for. Your suggestion might provide a different path to getting access to similar answers… though I’m not sure what is involved in the “Starter” version of the tool you mentioned, and though you say it doesn’t require bank details, it doesn’t say what it does require, so it makes it hard for a user to determine whether going the plugin route or the external tool route would be better.

Hello Peter
Thanks for your frank comments and moving the post to the right subgroup.
The truth is that we did NOT want to post on the forum at all without prior permission and I emailed Don twice to try to make contact, but got no reply.
So I decided to go with a post, but without any links as we are really not spammers hitting hundreds of forums but a small group of 3 translators/programmers/designers.
I also decided to only mention the Starter version, which is free, and not the paid versions.
Of course, the user would need an OpenAI key, which is a paid service, but CotranslatorAI Starter is free and there are no other strings attached. We hope to achieve sales of the other versions, but we don’t try to achieve this by deceitful means in any way.
The programmer is Stanislav Okhvat, who also created TransTools and TransTools +, He is well known among translators and has an impeccable record.
Me (Dave Neve (SafeTex) am well known among memoQ users and on a few other forums as a translator (not a spammer), and I
work with CotranslatorAI as an unpaid volunteer.So if you have any advice how we can move forward with NotePad++, I’m all ears.
Regards
Dave Neve (SafeTex)
PS. I did not really understand your remark about VS code or any other text editor and the difference this might have made to the post. Can you elaborate on this?
-
@Safe-Tex In summary, CotranslatorAI is a Windows sidebar styled application. Apparently, once it’s activated it listens for someone loading something into the copy/paste buffer, forwards that to OpenAI, and feeds the response back into the copy/paste buffer. Is that correct?
Apparently CotranslatorAI has some stuff that is of interest to people engaged in translating text from one human language to another.
I’m still puzzled on why you announced this to the Notepad++ forums. I would suspect that very few users of Notepad++ are involved with translating from one human language to another. It seems to make more sense to announce the application in Internet forums for and by language translators.

If you didn’t want to post without permission, then you probably shouldn’t have chosen to do the opposite after you didn’t get permission.

… CotranslatorAI Starter is free and there are no other strings attached. We hope to achieve sales of the other versionsAdvertising a free product, whether or not you are hoping to “hook” people with your product and later upsell, is still advertising.
Of course, the user would need an OpenAI key, which is a paid service,
Okay, then your product gives zero benefit to the Notepad++ community compared to the plugin that already exists; good to know. And since it’s a completely separate product, with no relationship at all with Notepad++, I am not sure why – other than free advertising – you would try to talk about it in the Notepad++ forum. (Note: I am not asking you to justify your reasons. At this point, my post is just a detailed description from the moderator why your posts have been deemed off-topic.)
The programmer is Stanislav Okhvat, who also created TransTools and TransTools +, He is well known among translators and has an impeccable record.
And Notepad++ is a text editor. And the people here are not likely to have heard of you or Stanislav Okhvat, so that does nothing. And advertising is advertising, even if we had heard of the author/developer.
So if you have any advice how we can move forward with NotePad++, I’m all ears.
If you were to make a plugin specifically for Notepad++, you would be on-topic here. Otherwise, your posts about CotranslatorAI actually have nothing to do with Notepad++.
I gave your first post the benefit of the doubt, because your first post in the forum, six years ago, was completely on-topic, so I was hoping that you were just a slightly overzealous Notepad++ user who also found another tool. But nothing that you have said in your reply indicates to me that you were really trying to help the Notepad++ Community, and instead it appears to me (and others – based on the complains I’ve been getting) that you were primarily trying to help CotranslatorAI (essentially, advertise). Which makes your post more than just “borderline” off topic, but completely off topic, for a Notepad++ discussion forum.
PS. I did not really understand your remark about VS code or any other text editor and the difference this might have made to the post. Can you elaborate on this?
It’s not really that complicated: your tool doesn’t care what text editor is used to put the text into the clipboard – it doesn’t care whether it’s Notepad++, or VSCode, or Atom, or Sublime Text, or vim, or Microsoft
notepad.exe: your tool is completely agnostic to the text editor; thus, just because you picked “Notepad++” as the text editor to spam your advertisement to doesn’t make it On Topic for a Notepad++ forum (or any other text editor forum).If you want to come here and talk about Notepad++, or ask questions about how to use Notepad++; or if you want to come as a plugin developer, and develop a new plugin for Notepad++ that interfaces with your external product, that’s fine. But you are not allowed to come and try to advertise some other product in our Notepad++ Forum – so, to be clear, the standalone CotranslatorAI product is officially “off topic” for this forum; do not post anything more about CotranslatorAI here in the Notepad++ forum unless you are coming to announce a Notepad++ plugin that gives some benefit to Notepad++ users.
You have already been given more leeway than most advertisers, who are usually banned immediately and have their posts immediately deleted. But your grace period is over.
I hope this is clear enough to you.
(No response is necessary: the best and safest response from you at this point is to not talk about this any more.)
