Brian B
Solutions Architect
5.0

Brian B.: Hi, my name is Brian. I'm here reviewing Notepad++. I'm a Solutions Architect for a company. We are a seven-person VAR, and I give Notepad++ a five out of five. Let's see, I tried just the built-in Notepad into Windows, but when I do dev programming work, special characters show up in that application that you can't really easily get rid of. So I switched over to Notepad++ so I could actually get a flat text editor and see what's actually going on with all the characters. I chose Notepad++ because it's free, it does everything I wanted to do, and it had even more features I didn't realize that I've learned over the years that have come in very handy. Very easy. You just install it, and it works just like the built-in Notepad and the Windows, except you can do a lot more with it. You can enable a document list and have multiple things open and multiple tabs open, and it's just a way better version of the built-in Windows Notepad. I would definitely recommend enabling the document list. It helps a lot to just visually seeing what's going on, and you can sort things around. Also, there's a really handy... I think if you hold Alt, there's ways to vertically select things, and there's a lot of features in there. Just check it out. It's been very useful over my career.
