I actually tried notepad++ the other day when I was needing to write some python code. I don't know if I had something miscorrectly configured. But the indention which looked correct in notepad++ would give me indent errors when I ran the code. Then when I opened it in PyPe I was able to see the source of my error. So needless to say I didn't get a very good first impression of notepad++ at all. If only they had gedit for windows...

I use Notepad++. It is great because of supporting the syntax colouration of so many languages (of which many I need).

It's one of my favorite programs. I use it for all my coding...and what's nice, it's got a user setting allowing you to create markers for your own languages.

[Trougedoor122]

No. Wait. What? You can create your own languages?

Yeah, you can designate colors and highlighting for certain words.
