Notepad++ is a free (as in "free speech" and also as in "free
beer") source code editor and Notepad replacement that supports several
languages. Running in the MS Windows environment, its use is governed
by GPL License.
Based on the powerful editing component Scintilla,
Notepad++ is written in C++ and uses pure
Win32 API and STL which ensures a higher execution speed and smaller
program size. By optimizing as many routines as possible without losing
user friendliness, Notepad++ is trying to
reduce the world carbon dioxide emissions. When using less CPU power,
the PC can throttle down and reduce power consumption, resulting in a
greener environment.
You're encouraged to translate
Notepad++ into your native language if there's not already a
translation present in the Binary
Translations page.
