    It always struck me as a code editor lite rather than a text editor. If I just want to jot something down, metapad is Notepad without all the Windows bullshit they keep trying to shoehorn.

      See, having used IDEs to write software and scripts for the past 20 years, I just can’t see N++ as anything more than a syntax aware notepad.

      I use both notepad and ++. I think it fits both worlds of code and text editor. When I am using it I am usually needing to to replace words and other tweaks that are really easy and flexible with ++.
