The biggest part of the awesomeness comes from the syntax highlighting and syntax folding support that it has for over 50 programming languages. It can load big SQL scripts that SQL Server will crash on (trust me, I tried this :)). As an example: it can load text files up to 600 MB. The great part about this tool is that provides tons of functionality in a lightweight but incredibly powerful application. It is only available for Windows but rumour has it that with the right work around you can use it on Linux and Mac OS as well. At this moment, they are at version 6.2 of this great tool. Let's begin with some general information: Notepad++ is open source software meaning that it is free to use. It is released under the GPL license which basicly means that it is awesome AND free! Lets continue. Notepad++ is a superior code editor for developers but "normal users" may get a thrill from it too as it has much more functionality than the default Windows notepad and is more intuitive to work with.
