Overall Satisfaction with Notepad++
Notepad++ is an essential text editor tool for everyone. I use this tool almost daily in the following areas.
View and Edit config files
I use it to view and edit .NET app configs and settings files. It has syntax highlighting for most common programming languages, JSON and SQL which is very useful.
Search for a string in all text files in a folder
I use this a lot when doing impact assessment for source codes. This feature is so powerful and easy to use.
Search and Replace special characters
You can search and replace special characters like \t, \r, \n. This feature is very useful when working with SQL statements.
Other frequently used features
Vertical text selection
Split/Join lines
Plugs-in
