Notepad++ works fine on Wine on Mac and Linux. After being away from it from awhile, I realized I don't need it anymore. I would often use the column edit mode and recorded macros, but I just bash script those now. I guess I'm a different person now?!?

i knew i recognized the name somewhere earlier today when i learned about it, but i couldn't remember how until i saw this; i was forced to use it because of windows a while back.

i remember liking it too.

Dude, I miss the days of using Notepad++ in windows.

I mean, Kate is better, but it does not have that same I'm using it in highschool feeling that Notepad++ does.

I actually just used it this weekend! On my airgapped Win XP machine. College vibes, very nostalgic.

Full on. China poisoning open source software. Lucky it got caught. Imagine how much of it is going on.
