      I am wondering why this nice-to-have feature did not generate any enthusiasm (no comments, no upvotes) for more than a year.

        I can only guess - maybe it is not as useful to others as it might be to you.

        Cheers

          Maybe, maybe not. This feature is available in Visual Studio, UltraEdit, PSPad, Eclipse, and perphaps some other editors. Why would they all have implemented a feature that very few people care about?

            …not as useful to others as it might be to you.

            “others” being the developers/contributers within the Notepad++ community.

            Why would they all have implemented a feature that very few people care about?

            1. They make money out of it;
            2. The developers of the editor have a need for the feature themselves;

            When you have C++ programming skills you could post a pull request with the applicable changes for the feature on the Notepad++ GitHub repository.
