Introduction
Notepad++ is a free open source editor, published by GPL license and it have multi-language version. In addition to writing, it can also be used to write programs.
It can highlight your code, use plugin. Today I want to record how to complete your code automatically.
First, you can download Notepad++ from here: https://notepad-plus-plus.org/downloads/
Setting auto complete code
Config => set program language format.
Select the programming language you want to complete, adjust the color you want (for example, let the eyes adapt to a little color), and then save and close it.
Settings => preferences.
Select “Word auto completion function“, and check “Automatically display function parameter prompt“, then save and close.
I use Python to demonstrate in below.
it looks like this.
Execute Python
If you have Python interpreter in your computer, you can install plugin NppExec in Notepad++; If not, you need install Python first.
Install NppExec. Then press the F5 shortcut key to directly call “Execute”.
Enter：
python "$(FULL_CURRENT_PATH)"You can execute the current Python file. Of course, it’s best to store it and set up shortcut keys for later use.
Output:
