            easiest would be to use WINE
            a bit harder - you need to rewrite everything from win32 api to macos/linux api - probably 95% of the code

              Hello from the future of 2023!

              Some ingenious and clever programmer created a cross platform clone of Notepad++ and is available on all major OSes including macOS.

              *Though the application overall is stable and usable, it should not be considered safe for critically important work.

              Enjoy!
