      People, some windows app are available on Linux as a snap package. I believe that this package manager downloads a wine embedded to allow this. The question is is there any hope to notepad++ become a snap app for soon?

          Might be of interest for @donho to add it to the n++ website.

                Sure @chcg. Npp snap uses an embedded wine and its site has a section to support notepad++ and others windows apps running on it. Furthermore, there is the GitHub page of this solution.

                I also suggest him anything about these issues in npp site.

                By the way, I’m correcting the snippet before. Font: GitHub page](https://github.com/mmtrt/notepad-plus-plus)

                sudo snap install notepad-plus-plus
                sudo snap connect notepad-plus-plus:hardware-observe
                sudo snap connect notepad-plus-plus:removable-media
                sudo snap connect notepad-plus-plus:process-control
                sudo snap connect notepad-plus-plus:cups-control

                  @cmeriaux, maybe would be interesting you share your brilliant pieces of knowledge instead impact notes.

                  Have a nice day.

                    because the command is so easy and it works on the first shot. It’s quiete impressive for a such feature.
                    Thanks for the tips

                      sudo snap connect notepad-plus-plus:process-control
                      

                      I got
