Notepad++ is a free source code editor and Notepad replacement that supports several languages. Running in the MS Windows environment, its use is governed by GPL Licence.
Based on a powerful editing component Scintilla, Notepad++ is written in C++ and uses pure Win32 API and STL which ensures a higher execution speed and smaller program size.
By optimizing as many routines as possible without losing user friendliness, Notepad++ is trying to reduce the world carbon dioxide emissions.
When using less CPU power, the PC can throttle down and reduce power consumption, resulting in a greener environment.
This project is mature. However, there may be still some bugs and missing features that are being worked on.
Key features of Notepad++:
-Syntax Highlighting and Syntax Folding – Supported languages : C, C++, Java, C#, XML, HTML, PHP, Javascript, RC resource file, makefile, ASCII art file (extension .nfo, doxygen, ini file, batch file, ASP, VB/VBS source files, SQL, Objective-C, CSS, Pascal, Perl, Python and Lua.
-WYSIWYG - If you have a colour printer, print your source code (or whatever you want) in colour.
-User Defined Syntax Highlighting – It allows user to define his own language : not only the syntax highlighting keywords, but also the syntax folding keywords, comment keywords and the operators.
-Multi-Document - You can edit several documents at the same time.
-Multi-View - You have two views at same time. That means you can visualize (edit) 2 different 
documents at the same time. You can visualize (edit) in the 2 views one document at 2 different positions as well. The modification of document in one view will carry out in another view (i.e. you modify the SAME document when you are in clone mode).
-Full Drag ‘N’ Drop supported – You can open a document by drag & drop. You can also move your document from a position (or even a view) to another by drag & drop.
-Dynamic position of Views – The user can set the position of the views dynamically (only in 2 views mode : the splitter can be set in horizontal or in vertical).
-File Status Auto-detection – If you modify or delete a file which opened in Notepad++, you will be 
notified to update your document (reload the file or remove the file).
-Zoom in and zoom out – That’s another fantastic function of Scintilla component.
-Multi-Language environment supported – The Chinese, Japanese and Korean Windows environments are supported.
-Bookmark- User can just click on the bookmark margin (located right side of line number margin) or type Ctrl+F2 to toggle a book mark. To reach the bookmark, type just F2 (Next bookmark) or Shift+F2 (Previous bookmark). To clear all bookmarks, click the Menu Search->Clear All bookmarks.
-Macro recording and playback- You can save several macros and edit their keyboard shorcuts for the next use.
-Brace and Indent guideline Highlighting – When the caret stay beside of one of those symbol { } [ ] ( ) , the symbol beside of caret and its symmetric opposite symbol will be highlighted, as well as the indent guideline (if any) in order to locate the bloc more easily.
