The killer feature for me besides the lightweightness of Notepad++ is it's ability to remember what files were last opened and also "save" unsaved tabs.
I end up using it like a glorified sticky tool which I know windows did have at some point, but Notepad++ provides the same functionality with a much better experience.
- nick_ 5y ago??? EmEditor has this.
- agumonkey 5y agoYeah it's utterly useful. That said it needs some lazier redesign when files are on network shares, cause it will hang
- zibzab 5y agoThat's pretty much a hard requirement if you use Windows 10 with it's update-reboot madness.
- Etherlord87 5y agoDon't rely on it too much. Multiple times I had to manually reopen the files located in the backup folder of Notepad ++. Once an unsaved file was lost. By comparison, Obsidian automatically saves on each edit, but since Obsidian isn't raw and has formatting quirkiness, it absolutely isn't a replacement for N++.
