I dropped Notepad++ in favor of this one. Notepad++ is rapidly turning into bloatware. Notepad2 does not need plugins for its features, and so it is faster and much more compact, while still full of useful features.

There's now a x64 build of Notepad2. But can someone please explain to me how to get the "Open shell links" feature, so strings like www.someurl.com or adress@server.net will launch when clicked in Notepad2?

I've tried them all over the years, including the modded version, but keep coming back to Flo's original. Small; fast; no distractions. Other notepad replacements often have too many options. The only thing I would add is a tabbed interface, but it's not a deal-breaker. Using the built-in Favourites and coupled with Flo's own metapath (http://www.portablefreeware.com/index.php?id=1701), it's almost perfect for the way I work. |
