Where To Find Notepad++ For Linux ?

XIII
I'm searching 2 days ago trying to find notepad++ for linux but i couldn't find it yet, does anyone know or have this great software?, ofcourse i have it on windows, but i don't use windows so much time, most times i'm on linux so i need it to be run on linux.
P.S: i don't use WINE so please don't recommend it smile.gif

If you have been sreaching for 2 days and can't find it, I would assume it doesn't exist in a linux compatible version. Even though you said not to, I'd suggest just using wine tongue.gif Obviouly you'd really like to use this software if you've looked for 2 days, so instead of searching for another day just spend a few minutes figuring out wine and voila. The software looks fairly striaghtforward on their site so I assume it would be emulated without any problems.

Go to the notepad++ forum and ask for a Linux version. If this versions is not written yet, try crying and ask for writing it.
The nopedad++ forum is here http://sourceforge.net/forum/?group_id=95717
(found after 13 seconds googling).

or try to port it yourself, their using MingW, which is gcc on Windows, so I guess you can easily port it.

QUOTE

To build this package:

* For generating the executable file (notepad++.exe), you can use VC++ 7 or MinGW 3.0 / 2.X (a makefile is available)

* For generating the dll files (SciLexer.dll) , you have to use MinGW 3.0 / 2.X

All the binaries will be built in the directory notepad++\PowerEditor\bin

Note that the executable file npp.exe built by MinGW 3.0, for the reason of
the runtime lib static-link, has almost 160KB more than the one built by VC++ 7.

There's no remedy for the moment. If you can reduce the exe size by adding/changing
the compiler flag or linker flag, please let me know.

What's so great about notepad++ that it replaces all the other editors available for Linux?

Remember I have not used notepad++ but am just looking into it, especially the porting side of things, that's something I enjoy doing.

Also noticed from it's website that it used part of Scintilla, how does ScinTE differ to Notepad++ since that would be interesting to know. Could turn out that writing a new editor using Scintilla might be more effective than porting Notepad++?

I was thinking, if you have Kate (Advanced Editor for KDE) then why do you want notepad++

You know, I am going to scream. WHY ON EARTH USE KATE FOR coding...

How about VIm - you can install it with gui for gnome or kde... Glimmer (which is the proggie I started my first website with).. Or if you prefer a more all around - code completion etc - try Bluefish.

If you dont like downloading extra stuff... Open a terminal, type vi <filename.extension> and there you go smile.gif (without the < >) Be advised in Vi, you need to hit the Ins key to type, and Esc to leave the typing mode. To exit the file and save.. hit Esc then type ":wq!" : is to execute a command, w for write, q for quit and ! to force it so it's not fussing.

Just been looking at the screenshots for Notepad++ and there's really nothing impressive seen from the screenshots, so I take it, it must be the features it has?

I would say Quanta Plus and Bluefish would probably be editors that come close to Notepad++, so there maybe no need to actually port Notepad++ over to Linux.

I agree that KATE is not really a good code editor, but it is a simple text editor that has some syntax features that would make it acceptable, same would go for the Gnome Editor (gedit).

Cheers,


MC

Moonwitch, I use Kate for my programming/editing, it's just as great as other editors IMO.

People have to get familiar with vi, the default text editor with any Unix or Linux computer in the world.

How to install NP++ on linux.
Where To Find Notepad++ For Linux ?

Notepad++ is built on Scite, so you might want to install it and give that a try first.

If not, Wine is your solution, even though you don't like it or don't want to use it.

Google has even done this for you with a nice little Python installer. Uses apt-get, so it'll work on Debian and Ubuntu and maybe others. Just read the python script. You can do it on other distros. By hand.
