sobek Posted December 12, 2015 Posted December 12, 2015 Notepad++ is the safe way At this stage i believe that taking the strongest magnet you can find and randomly waving it next to your HDD might be a safer way to edit documents than doing it with notepad. Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two. Come let's eat grandpa! Use punctuation, save lives!
StandingCow Posted December 12, 2015 Posted December 12, 2015 NEVER use notepad. Don't ever utter it's name, even thinking of its existence can make your computer crash, render your friends infertile or cause cancer in your loved ones. :P Seriously, it is the most sorry excuse for an editor you will ever find. It's so bad that it can break files when you edit them, i kid you not. For editing a small file like this it is perfectly fine. :smilewink: Now if it were a big assed file then I would agree with you.... but don't say never. 5900X - 32 GB 3600 RAM - 1080TI My Twitch Channel ~Moo

Size is irrelevant, encoding and formating are the culprits. Getting a bit OT like 3 posts ago. :music_whistling: Edited December 12, 2015 by sobek Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two.

Weta43 Posted December 12, 2015 Posted December 12, 2015 Notepad++ is not 'notepad' Notepad++ is a nice freeware editor - chose your encoding, marks up most languages, does file compares, searches files in folders & works with files up to about a GB Cheers.

I've never been into a development house where the majority of coders didn't have it installed. I love it. Back on the topic of the newsletter though. Can't wait for 1.5 to become the stable branch at the end of the month, I think a lot of the non-forum people who haven't played with it are going to be in for a big lovely surprise at Christmas/New Year.

giei Posted December 12, 2015 Posted December 12, 2015 I stop using np++ since the release of vs code :) I'm flying since 1988 (Flight Simulator 3.0) :pilotfly:
