        Hello sathish-kulal,

        the builtin function is Run (F5) which can execute an external program together with your file
        provided as a parameter.
        See here for a more detailed description.
        This means you can run batch files, python script, c program and so on but you provide your
        complete file like

        cmd /k python.exe “$(FULL_CURRENT_PATH)”

        “$(FULL_CURRENT_PATH)” is the path of the active document.

        In this article it is also mentioned that there is a plugin called NppExec which has much more functionality.
        Maybe worth to try it as well.

        Cheers
        Claudia
