        Hello, @don-ho and All,

        You said, on GitHub :

        @zahra21 If you rebuild this history, then I will find a place to store it, and continue to maintain it on every release.

        Well, we do not have to do anything as @michael-vincent did it for us ;-)). Refer to :

        From the oldest to the newest    https://gist.github.com/vinsworldcom/3fe7d0cd9c11745e4cb6d0095b4d94c5
        From the newest to the oldest    https://gist.github.com/vinsworldcom/2e03bc9dc58390841ab0e0b236b3d305

        Best Regards,

          Hello, @zahra-ayat, @ekopalypse, @alan-kilborn, @michael-vincent, @peterjones and All,

          To @michael-vincent :

          Like @Alan-kilborn, and some others, I made my own list of the different contents of the change.log file !

          Comparing with your global file, Michael, it seems to me that the N++ version v2.5 is missing

          I did notice that this version is not present in the repository but I think that it did exist because I kept the Don Ho’s comments :

          02/11/2004
          Notepad++ new release - v2.5 :
          4 programming languages and various features are added in this release. Some comments for some new features:
          About 2 or 3 months ago, I’ve got a feature request to have multi-instance of Notepad++ - Here it is.
          But be aware, You may lose your Notepad++ setting since each Notepad++ instance tries to write the setting into the same configure file. It’ll be ok if you change the setting while the unique instance, but not multi-instance.
          For the feature to launch Notepad++ by assigning the language for the syntax highlighting, here’s the syntax of command :
          notepad++.exe -llanguage file_to_open
          ex: c:\program file\Notepad++\notepad++.exe -lxml d:\myproj\proj.vcproj
          the valid language string are: c, cpp, java, cs, objc, rc, html, javascript, php, vb, sql, xml, asp, perl, pascal, python, css, lua, batch, ini, nfo, tex, fortran, bash, actionscript and nsis
          Note: the parameter is case-sensitive.
          Here’re the new features and corrected bugs (from v2.4) :

          1. Add the capacity that user can add his/her extension for each supported language (screenshot).
          2. Add the capacity that user can add his/her keywords for each supported language (screenshot).
          3. Add the new menu entries/features: Insert/Remove TAB, Duplicate or transpose current line, split/join lines and Move Up/Down current line.
          4. Add the support of languages TeX, NSIS, Flash actionscript, Unix/Linux shell script and Fortran.
          5. Add the new font style Underline (screenshot).
          6. Add the Multi-instance functionality: pass the parameter -multiInst (case-sensitive) on the command line to activate it.
          7. Add the feature to open file by resigning the syntax highlighting, that user can pass the parameter -l (case-sensitive) to specify the set language.
          8. Enhance Notepad replacement of View source under IExplorer - the syntax highlighting will be set automatically as HTML (optional in Installer).
          9. Add the selected characters number display on the status bar (screenshot).
          10. Add the total characters number display on the status bar (screenshot).
          11. Correct a bug of the limit number of open file via the open file dialog.
          12. Correct a bug (symbol ^ as operator) for User Language Define System.
          13. Add the shortcut Ctrl-R to Launch the Run Dialog.
          14. Enhance the Run Dialog: the ability to interpreter the environment variables.
          15. Add the Display as UTF-8 menu entry.
          16. Correct an UTF-8 document display bug under Chinese/Korean/Japanese Windows.

          So, @Michael-vincent, simply add the part, below, to your global file :

          Notepad++ v2.5 enhancements and bug-fixes (from v2.4) :
2004-11-02

1.  Add the capacity that user can add his/her extension for each supported language.

4.  Add the support of languages TEX, NSIS, FLASH actionscript, Unix/Linux SHELL script and FORTRAN.
5.  Add the new font style Underline.

            So, @Michael-vincent, simply add the part, below, to your global file :

            Updated both my gists:

            oldest to newest = https://gist.github.com/vinsworldcom/3fe7d0cd9c11745e4cb6d0095b4d94c5
            newest to oldest = https://gist.github.com/vinsworldcom/2e03bc9dc58390841ab0e0b236b3d305

            I included the download link to the 32-bit ZIP (if available) and a release date (if found) on each entry.

            Cheers.

              Hi, @zahra-ayat, @ekopalypse, @alan-kilborn, @michael-vincent, @peterjones and All,

              Sorry to bother you again, Michael : Concerning the very first versions, I would change the part before N++ v1.2 ( now OK ) :

              Notepad++ v1.0 Beta
2003-11-25

1. Notepad++ is a Scintilla-based source editor written in C++ with the win32 API (without MFC).
2. The aim of Notepad++ is to offer the programmer a better GUI and to offer the general user a better customizable Notepad.

1. A makefile, working for MinGW 3.0., is available.
2. An enhancement on the filter of the File Open dialog.
3. When user launches find & Replace dialog (with CTRL+F or CTRL+H), NPP checks if there's selected text.
     If yes, the selected text will be inserted into the list box of the Find & Replace Dialog.

Notepad++ v1.0 Bis enhancements and bug-fixes (from v1.0) :
2003-12-12
 
1. A miniature bug for tool-bar display is corrected.
2. Add 2 menu entries for the existing functions go to another view and clone to another view, and remove one invalid menu entry.

                I removed this one in favor of newest to oldest as preferred by @donho in GitHub Issue 9745.

                I also have a Perl script that can reverse the order back so I regenerate oldest to newest if anyone prefers that way - or can share the script if anyone thinks it useful. The “scripts” I used (DOS Command Prompt one-liners, with the help of some GnuWIn32 and Git for Windows commands) to obtain the change logs can be found above.

                Cheers.

                  @zahra-ayat

                  Probably you are talking about the information that a collection of all of the “change.log” files (that come with every release) would provide?

                  I have collected that information into one file, since 2015; it is currently 800 or so lines, I could post it here if it is of interest.

                  yes, notepad++ is my favorite program.
                  i am very glad that i read informations about different versions.
                  God bless you!

                    It would have more weight behind it if someone other than me were to make an official npp-usermanual request on github… especially a normal user like @zahra-ayat , rather than a frequent contributor to the forum.

                    I think that request is this one?: https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/issues/9745

                    yes, its correct.
                    i asked such helpful informations on this issue.
