Notepad++ has become a staple in my coding workflow (as a college student studying IT) for a couple of years before I started trying out VS Code, or Visual Studio Code. Nowadays, while I use VS Code for coding, I mostly just use NPP to edit my text files.
So, for both writing and editing text files as well as coding, what are your thoughts on Notepad++ and how well does it deliver as both a text editor and for writing code?
Imo prose handles very differently. I use nvim for everything but there are definitely times that I fire up Sublime Text when I want to do long-form writing.
Prose has very different requirements; I don’t need the word “this” highlighted, I don’t need the word Date capitalized every time I write it.
