-
a plugin that alters the behaviour of ctrl+x and ctrl+c when no selection is made, the whole current line is cut/copied. This mimics the behaviour of Visual Studio

Hi Kasper,
Thanks for this very useful plugin. Just put your CutNCopyLine.dll file in Plugins folder and it worked, at once, as expected ! Nice , indeed :-))
Do you know that an other guy, Mackenzie Zastrow, built a similar plugin, in 2013 ? Just refer to the link, below :
https://bitbucket.org/zastrowm/notepad-visualstudiolinecopy/
However, your plugin seems, even, more simple, because ther’s no need to allocate the CTRL + C and CTRL + X shortcuts to your plugin, nor suppress these two shortcuts, from the default SCI_CUT and SCI_COPY Scintilla commands !
Best Regards,

Hi Guy
Thanks for testing the plugin, glad you liked it ;) All we need now is to get it on the plugin manager… ;)
-
@Kasper-Graversen It’s sad the plugin manager’s list hasn’t been updated in so long…wish there was a better way.
-
Im actually contemplating writing a better plugin manager in C# - one where you can search etc. but not sure its worth the efford and all the issues I’ve reported to @Ho-Don have never been replied… so not sure a new plugin manager will be accepted by him as being packed with notepad++
-
I’ve been contemplating that same thing for a while as well. There is alot of potential features that could be added. Honestly the 2 things that have stopped me is (as you already stated) I’m not sure it would actually be shipped with N++ as a replacement…and hosting a file somewhere that uses a good bit of bandwidth.
Trying to get any kind of feedback or info from @Don-Ho is nearly impossible and quite frustrating at times.

Indeed, I didn’t even know that you could specify a keyboard shortcut by default. I’m going to have to steal that :: )

Maybe its time to fork? NPP needs more attention these days…
-
@Ethan-Piliavin tempting but who has the time? also look at the code. It’s not my preferred coding style I must say.

@Ethan-Piliavin @Kasper-Graversen
At this point it would be better off to rewrite it rather than just fork it. There is stuff on the backend side (webpage, release system, etc) of things that
couldshould be done away with. -
@dail there is a wrapper for scintilla for c# - and we have C# on linux now as well… so Im up for it if you are;) but we have all the plugins to rewrite as well… not sure its gonna happen ;)
-
I think/hope @dail ment the Plugin Manager only.
Surely it’s not necessary to rewrite all the plugin’s. -
@Kasper-Graversen @MAPJe71 Yes! I was most certainly meaning just the Plugin Manager ;)
-
@dail oh… ;) well if we can do it in C# I think it would be fun to collaborate ;)
also I would think the plugin entries can be shared on github. The major problem is to maintain versions of the plugins and ensuring noone is making destructive plugins or submitting destructive changes to existing plugings.
