The best way to boycott NP++ is to use another better Text Editor: CudaText

[hycmos]

well, It seems I can post again.
Thank the freedom.

So Now, I show you a wonderful function in CudaText.
after study CudaText some days, I write my first plugin for the Cudatext.

[Share My Idea] Plugin to get alt+C function same as NP++:
function: column mode to insert increasing leading number at everyline (Same as Notepad++)

1. you can find menu Plugins–> Make Plugin
2. Click it
3. Plugname=MyaltC,module name=MyaltC,items=MyaltC>run
4. Click “OK”
5. At line 27, find “def run(self)”
6. replace all of def run(self) with:

def run(self):
          cnt = ed.get_carets()
          altCnum=dlg_input_ex(4, 'Number be inserted',
                'start'   , text1="0", label2="Step by", text2="1",
                label3="Leading Char", text3="",label4="Following Char", text4="")
          if altCnum==None:return()
          i=0
          for a_cnt in cnt:
              altCtxt=int(altCnum[0])+i*int(altCnum[1])
              altCtxt=altCnum[2]+str(altCtxt)+altCnum[3]
              a_caret=a_cnt[0]
              if a_cnt[0]>a_cnt[2]:
                  a_caret=a_cnt[2]
              ed.insert(a_caret, a_cnt[1], altCtxt)
              i=i+1

only 15 lines!!!
could not believe!!!

7. Now restart CudaText. you can find new menu in “Plugins–>MyaltC”, even you can assign a hotkey ‘alt+C’ to this.
8. get the Alt-C function same as many editor :D :D
   Thank too the Cudatext’s power python API,
   this function is more powerful than NP++'s Alt+C. This can add the following char.

It is so easy to implement this function in Cudatext. more powerful! So easy!
