You forgot multiple cursors! That's one of the best features! (Unless of course you were referencing that by "rename multiple variables at the same time.")

Also Notepad++ doesn't have auto-indent? :o

Yes, that's what I meant.

  • Auto indenting. This is a big deal for me.
  • Goto anything. In the small project i was testing it on, this isn't such a big deal, but for larger projects it's great!
  • Projects. They save all the files you were working on, where you were in those files, unsaved changes, ect.
  • Batch edits. This is something i wouldn't use often, but it would be very useful sometimes.
  • Lots of plugins.
  • F7 runs the current project in *any* way you specify.
  • Snippets. Save code templates for later reuse.
  • Open entire folders, instead of just files.
  • Auto complete for parentheses, brackets, ect.
In my opinion, NOTEPAD + + has all of these features, except "Rename multiple variables at the same time", "Cross platform".
Plus of the "Sublime Text" for me is - "Python based plugin API (built in Python console to interactively experiment in real time)".

I think i was missing some of the features of np++ then. Auto indenting? Goto anything? Projects? Does np++ really have all those? where are they?

Most of these features are available with Np++, not natively, but using plugins.

Code: Select all

Editor::Type()
{
       if(most_features != all_features && additional_plugins != native_implementation)
       {
             AwesomeEditor = 'Sublime';
       }
       else
       {
              AwesomeEditor = 'Notepad++';
       }
       return AwesomeEditor;
}
Console Screen says "Sublime." I trust the console screen. :joker:

I prefer Lua

Code: Select all

editors = {Sublime, NotepadPlusPlus}
for i, v in ipairs(editors) do
   if v.alreadyInstalled then
      print(v.name)
      break
   end
end
and Lua says Notepad++.
Seriously, I like NP++ and I'm too lazy to try out a new text editor, but not too lazy to keep talking about being too lazy to try out a new text editor; so I'll stick with NP++.

http://npp-community.tuxfamily.org/docu ... management - this is "Projects".
"Goto anything" - i don't find.
Auto indenting - i don't find.
