hey kel it works great except it shows an error message whenever i try to open a file with it: "File doesn't exist. Create it?". Fixed by adding the following to registry:
I was using "Kels_NotePad++_addon_replacer_v3.9rebuild2.cab" 
Code: Select all
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Notepad++]
@="C:\\Program Files\\Notepad++"

To Kelsenellenelvian:
I was wondering what happened to the below quoted in the addon?
Could that somehow be included in both versions of addon?
I was surprised when I could not do that.

Oh I just found a typo bug in add/remove program entry for 3.9 it still says 3.6. Hehe.Explorer context menu entry (right click)
One of the most demanded features is open from Explorer Context Menu Entry (right click). The context menu feature comes with the installer. If you use the zipped package, download Notepad++ Context Menu Component, unzip nppCM.bin.zip to your notepad++ directory, then run reg.bat. This component is modified from the MIT open source project WSciTEcm (Context Menu Extension for SciTE), made by Andre Burgaud to meet the need of Notepad++. The modified source code is available here.
The old version of context menu component has some bugs and doesn't work on Windows Vista. To uninstall it, open a DOS box (Start->Run, type cmd then OK), go to your notepad++ directory under DOS prompt, type regsvr32 /u nppshellext.dll , then Enter.

Hi all,
I have a problem with my Notepad++ (standard install, not using this addon). The context menu doesn't appear when I right-click on files. It seems to be related to RyanVM's update pack. If I reinstall Windows from my SP2 CD and then install NPP, the context menu works fine. But with RVM update pack integrated, it doesn't. This observation has been consistent over my past few reinstallations of Windows.
I just reinstalled Windows XP yesterday (this time, with RVM 215a integrated) and I'm having the problem again. I'd really prefer not having to install Windows all over again for something as simple as a context menu (which I use all the time however).
Any ideas?
Thanks,
~ss

Hi ton80,
RVM 215a, no addons. N++ version 3.9 using exe installer (installed it after Windows was installed, i.e. NOT integrated). The n++ context menu doesn't show up.
I was able to create my own context menu using a custom .inf
I think something about nlite or Ryan's update pack may break contexts menu entries. I am having another missing context menu entry named "Open Folder" in Opera 9.10 as well.
Thanks for your suggestions,
~ss

Kels,The Original Windows Notepad has UTF8 Encoding set by default while Nodpad++ set to ANSI encoding by default....
Can you permanently change ANSI to UTF Encoding in Nodpad++ along with TAHOMA.TTF font by default...
Actually sometimes we need our native language to write in Nodpad,Tahoma Font supports a wide range of languages,but UTF8 Encoding must be Enable....
Thanks in Advanced...

Tidy HTML
First I would like to thank Kel for the N++ 4 addon - THX A LOT !!!
One of the best things, I love about Notepad++, are its plug-ins and unfortunately neither of the ones included with version 4 I do not need really...
...
although integrated browser is pretty nice for what I do...
Would it be so difficult to include Tidy HTML
(http://textfx.no-ip.com/textfx/ - non special releases)
with unsustainable version of this beautiful plug-in?
Beforehand thank you very much
Cheers,
Fed

I'm sure Kel is aware of this, but I just thought I would post it for others...
NOTE: Here is a quote from Don HO....
NOTE: Here is a quote from Don HO....
The version 4.0 is not a stable release, that's reason of this release of version 4.0.1 :
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfile ... p_id=95717
However, this release doesn't fix all the critical bugs regarding the docking feature,
I'll do v4.0.2 RC ASAP.
Here you can download Notepad++ v4.0.2 RC :
http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/com ... 0.2.RC.zip
This version fixes the docking feature crash issues and resize docked dialog problem under win98/ME.
Notepad++ v4.0.2 will be released in 4 days if everything is in order (ie. no regressive bugs and crash issue).
Please let us know if you have any problem with this release.
Don

There was an issue discovered in Notepad++ where the cursor loses focus after closing the find dialog, and Notepad++ 4.0.2 was silently updated by removing the explorer plugin which caused the problem.
Could you please update this, or if it is already included never mind.
Here is where the announcement was made:
http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php? ... _id=331753
As you can see it is dated 18th February.
btw, This is the most important addon I have right now ! I can't live without this program
