I want to say I've been using this for over 15 years now? With all the text editors out there this one is my favorite use out of the box.

I'm a big sublime text fan but notepad++ just works in a way that makes me never hesitate to recommend it to people of all skill levels. It is like nano for the gui.

My first thought was, hey how come you didn't pick Sublime?

And my next thought was, you know what, you're right.
