You know your workflow, and you should be the best master and architect of your toolkit that you can be. It’s like always having candles and matches on hand (and knowing exactly where they are), and cans of sardines…ĭon’t feel I’m coming down on you. The price of feature-richness is complexity, change, and a bit of fragility. Np++ (perhaps due to my reckless use of it) can get into a wonky state. I love having boring old feature-poor super-reliable Notepad.exe as the default for most/many file types.And I’ve probably left some things out.įrom all that richness, it’s easy to set things up so files & subdirs I work with are nearly always conveniently at hand, and I rarely have to go trudging through subdirectories, whether using the File|Open dialog or Windows Explorer, and I rarely miss the ability to double-click to get something into Np++ For what it’s worth, I’m a many-years Np++ user, and I don’t have any file types associated with it, for three broad reasons:įeature richness of Windows: WinExplr right-click menu ability to create shortcuts to files & subdirs, Desktop, Quick Access, Taskbar, Alt-Tabįeature richness of Np++: support for Drag n Drop Session persistence ‘Open File’ uses the subdir of the active file ‘Open containing file in explorer’ Project Panels Recently Closed Files Session Manager plug-in Explorer plug-inĪnd I don’t routinely use everything I mentioned.
