@HealPotion

did you run the script via NppExec plugin?
You need to use PythonScript Plugin to have access to the notepad object

How do I run the script through NppExec?

Thanks for the response.

@HealPotion

you can’t - NppExec does not know anything about Npp - you need to use Python Script plugin as this plugin is creating and exporting the Npp namespace.
