What is so special about notepad++ that no other editors have? I have not used it extensively myself (and last time I ever even did was probably 10yr ago), so I don’t know it well enough, I actually can’t remember what made me use it over the stock notepad back when I did use windows but it must have been some feature.
It used to be leagues better than the default on windows, having plugins, hex-view for binary files, actual history instead of one undo, ability to open big files without much trouble, formatting and syntax highlight. At least, those were the reasons I used it, nowadays I still install it and set as default, but don’t use that much. And I moved to Linux anyway
