Notepad3

Although the Windows operating system was updated significantly over the past years.ย  However, the default Windows Notepad has not been updated in 20 years. If you need a text editor for simple programming tasks, using the vanilla Windows Notepad just does not cut it. Enter Notepad3!

Therefore, we created Notepad3 with all the features that the default Windows Notepad currently lacks. Notepad3 is a fast and light-weight Scintilla-based text editor with syntax highlighting. It has a small memory footprint, but is powerful enough to handle most programming jobs.

Basic Notepad3 Features

Furthermore, Notepad3 has the following features: code folding, bracket matching, automatic indentation, word auto-completion, convert character encoding between various formats (ASCII, UTF-8, and UTF-16), newline format conversion (between DOS (CR/LF), Unix (LF), and Macintosh (CR) formats), multiple undo or redo, bookmarks, and regular expression-based find and replace.

Supported Languages

Previously we mentioned that Notepad3 can handle almost any programming job and we are not lying. Just take a look at the list of supported programming languages below and spot your favorite.

It offers syntax highlighting support for ASP, assembly language, AutoHotkey, AutoIt3, AviSynth, Bash, BAT, C, C++, C#, CMake, CoffeeScript, Common Gateway Interface (CGI), Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), DIFF, HTML, INF, INI, Inno Setup, Java, JavaScript, LaTeX, Lua, Markdown, NSIS, Pascal, Perl, PHP, Python, REG, Ruby, SQL, Tcl, Visual Basic (VB), VBScript, VHDL scripts, XHTML, XML, YAML, D Source Script, Go Source Script, JSON, Makefiles, MATLAB, Nim Source Code, Power Shell Script, Resource Script, Shell Script and improved support for NFO ANSI art.

Download Notepad3

Notepad3 comes in two flavors. A setup for installing it to your computer and optionally replacing the default Windows Notepad. And a portable version for running it straight from a memory stick or portable hard drive. Just download whichever you prefer.

    Good,
    I just went from notepad2-mod to notepad3 and it looks very robust and updated, thx

    Taking a look at other possibilities in that change of notepad2-mod, I also found notepad2e, with the feature of multiple word editing, and I do not know if notepad3 implements it (at least I have not found anything).

    https://github.com/ProgerXP/Notepad2e#new-edit-selection

    Would there be a possibility of having that characteristic? , or at least something like that

    A greeting and thanks for this application ๐Ÿ™‚

    This is the best Notepad ever! I always use for for edit Reg Files, Batch Files, or a file that I do not have a program to open and I want to edit it…
    It is faster than an IDE, so sometimes I use it to edit my own projects!

    Please, never let this program die, it is very good!

    Please bring back the light green highlighted bookmark functionality. It was a very visual representation of a bookmark, was easy to spot while not jumping from one bookmark to another, but scrolling through a long document (I’m knee-deep in 8-10 thousand line sqldumps). This new tiny icon at the edge of the line is way harder to spot. Thanks! Really appreciate your hard work, Notepad3 is an excellent tool and a tremendous help sorting out anything text-related all through the day.

        Well, almost. It makes the bookmark on the selection margin bigger and green. Better… but the solution I was looking for turned out to be turning off the selection margin in View. Now the bookmarked lines are highlighted green. Awesome! ๐Ÿ™‚

    There is a bug in displaying Select Scheme window in version 5.19.108.1602

    My setup: Win10 Pro 64bit 1804
    Primary monitor: scaling 200%
    Secondary monitor: scaling 100%

    When the Notepad3 window is open on the secondary monitor, Select scheme window is outside of viewport and looks empty.
    See the screenshot:

      If a Settings-Key/Value is missing, an internal default is used as fallback.
      So vice versa can be used; If a Settings-Key/Value evalutes to default, it must not be written to settings file => that reduces the file size.

    Reporting bug – for Notepad3_4.18.512.992_Setup.zip and Notepad3_5.18.1106.1434_Setup.exe. Installed on Windows 10 v1809 with the following issue:

    Hereโ€™s a screenshot of what I mean:
    https://s15.directupload.net/images/181202/z8fvrycn.jpg

    Description:

    With word wrap on, a text line wraps on a second line and so forth, etcetera… when the line or sentence (text) is longer than the display window size. Okay.

    So the ISSUE is, when you click on that line number, so as to select the full line of characters that has been word wrapped below, you only get the first row selected, NOT the full highlighted yellow colored text to copy, as expected and wanted).

    When clicking on the line number, it is supposed to select the whole line, even if it drops down below as a word wrap.

    But in these versions (listed above), unless there is a new setting to change this behavior, when selecting the line number, only the first row gets selected for copying despite the whole line number gets colored yellow…

    This action should be changed to: when selecting the line number, the full line gets highlighted for copying, even if it is word wrapped…. (got it)?

      With the new version, an optimized settings-file handling is introduced (default settings are redundant and not saved anymore – only changed settings are saved now). This will reduce the .ini file size.
      If some changed settings (compared to default settings) are lost, this would be a bug, please report details to https://github.com/rizonesoft/Notepad3/issues.

      If “Accelerated Word Navigation” is enabled, also punctuation characters are seen as word characters for double-click selection. This can be fine-tuned by “[Settings2] ;ExtendedWhiteSpaceChars=” defining (ASCII) characters, which should be taken (additional to usual white-space chars) as word delimiter for the “Accelerated Word Navigation”.

    Dear Mr. Derick Payne,

    Thank you for the upgrade of Notepad3 version 3 to 4. There are lot of new features, changes, enhancements and fixes.

    Just want to ask, why you removed the wyUpdate features from Notepad3?

    Reply ↓
    1. Derick Payne Post author

      The wyUpdate on the server side broke. I researched the issue and found that the only solution is to run the update over an insecure http connection. This requires me to allow http connections to Rizonesoft.com and this is not desirable. Furthermore, I found that wyUpdate is dependent on .NET framework and this is not ideal. However, I am working on an administration tool that will be used to check for updates.

    Would it be able to change the view of nfo files (ascii art) back to the way it worked in notepad2-mod? All the lines have these little horizontal spaces between while in notepad2-mod, nfo files were rendering correctly (like in any other good nfo viewer). Also the anti-alaising setting is a bit too high for my taste. The best option would be a button to change between rendered and not rendered ascii art.

    Here’s a screenshot of what I mean:
    http://fs5.directupload.net/images/180502/uulccy7e.png

    Ps.: Yes, I translated notepad2-mod into german language for my own purpose cause after I wanted to share it with others, the np2-mod developer called me a stupid a**hole and prohibited any modification of “his” work – even if it’s just the ui language.

    Thanks for this, just discovered Notepad3, and switched from Notepad2 Mod.
    Noticed one minor issue though, the “eolfilled” parameter has no effect for the “Registry files” scheme.Registry files look the same with our without the “eolfilled” argument.
    Not sure if other schemes are also affected, I didn’t test them all, but “eolfilled” does work for batch files though.

    This was working in Notepad2-mod for registry files.

          Thanks a lot, much appreciated, and as a bonus I got to learn a little about the functioning of Notepad3 (I had no idea what a lexer was before reading the github). That said, I really like the enhanced “lexer” for the registry editor. I understand a workaround would be to use configuration files like it was in Notepad2-mod to get the eolfilled functionality back, but I would lose the other registry files-specific enhancements, which I really like (especially the “GUID” formatting to make it easier to spot those in registry files). Now my only issue is deciding which of the two choices I like best considering advantages and limitations of each one ๐Ÿ™‚

        Hi,
        Thanks for replying to me, and I will be reading on development on https://github.com/rizonesoft/Notepad3/issues/359
        I tested the new versions 3.18.216.891 and 3.18.216.892 and did have any visible problems with them, although the “eolfilled” parameter only appears to be enabled for “Added Keys”, is that right?
        I’d be interested in “eolfilled” also be enabled for Comments in registry files, unless that causes issues. You bring a good point in https://github.com/rizonesoft/Notepad3/issues/359 about registry files having comments right after Added Keys, and not sure how this would be dealt with (in Notepad2-mod, using the Configuration files lexer the “Added Keys” eolfilled argument would prevail when adding a comment on the same line).

    Hello there.
    Been using Notepad2-mod for many years, no prob. Decided to try Notepad3 this September (or August). Very similar to Notepad2, all was working great. Til I decided to update it a few days ago. While i’m not 100% sure this wasn’t happening with the older, “September” version, too, but now i started to notice flashing lines. Will try to explain: take a wall of text without spaces so you can see it more clearly, and then just look at the window: you will see random lines flashing (and the bottom bar, i.e. Ln, Col, size, etc…), every 2-3 seconds or so. It much much worse when you try to select part of that text – all lines will flash like crazy (and bottom bar too)!! Back to Notepad2-mod, where only bottom toolbar will, sometimes, flash. Default config in both cases by the way. Hope you can solve it soon ๐Ÿ™‚
    Keep it up.

      We are aware of the bug. We recently introduced an experimental ‘hyperlink hotspot’ feature that caused a few issues. But this is expected with any new feature. I apologize for not testing it properly before releasing. However, you can expect a new version on the 23rd with most if not all the bugs sorted out. Thank you for your support. ๐Ÿ™‚

        Yes, that’s what i thought initially – must be some sort of new option/function and it doesn’t work as expected. Good luck on solving that stuff ๐Ÿ˜‰ (if not, would be great to have some sort of “on/off” option for it, for those who need that, just my 2 cents)

          This behaviour was dramatically improved starting with release 3.17.1228.783, and continued improving until the latest release (3.18.131.862) – I suggest you try it. And keep watching this space, we are still busy working on the Hyperlink Hotspot feature behind the scenes to make it even better.

      For your monitor and clear-type font setup it maybe better to switch off Scintillas new Direct Write technology. You can do this within NP3’s settings file, section [Settings2] set SciDirectWriteTech=0.

      If you have a screen resolution higher than HD, the HighDPI toolbar is used.
      You can use the .ini configuration to define the screen resolution, where the bigger HighDPI toolbar should be used: Section [Windows] for example 2560×1440 HighDpiToolBar=0 will switch back to good old small toolbar.

    With Notepad3 just installed and without any change to the configuration file, I entered the 12345678901234567890 string, then Enter and a string of pure ASCI characters of equal length, beat so many Enter until you reach line 7, select line 1 with click on line number and CTRL-C, move pointer to line 6 with click on the line number and paste with CTRL-V.
    As a result I got the warning โ€œSwitching the file encoding from one encoding to another can replace unsupported text with default characters and the undo โ€ฆโ€

      Windows XP and 2003 are both 14+ years old (XP was released in 2001!). Microsoft hasn’t supported it for years. There’s really no excuse for being on it still. My opinion: If you like a stale OS, then you’re gonna have to stick with stale software. Notepad2 should work just fine for you :). I would recommend upgrading your OS, because you’re going to find a lot of stuff that doesn’t work with it!

    I just moved from Notepad2-Mod to your app a few minutes ago so I’m still yet to discover the improvements. But after I few seconds I came to the 1st problem… Favorites do not show up in the list… I’ve set the favorites folder in three different ways in the settings file:
    1) =%CSIDL:MYDOCUMENTS%\Notepad3
    2) =%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Notepad3
    3) =C:\Users\\Documents\Notepad3
    Even thought, they all work to add new shortcuts… In neither of them the shortcuts appear in the list of documents for opening. Also, the first 3 or 4 times I’ve tried changing the path to Favorites via the “Click here to specify the directory… etc” and the app crashed, just after a used the full qualified path manually editing the config file it started to work (I noticed that even though the full path solved the crash problem, the program automatically used the 1st option as it’s default, and now it works no matter which option you use, that’s weird).

    Hi, thanks for your work on Notepad3 it’s greatly appreciated, I just would like to bring up an issue I hope you can fix, I use XYplorer (which is built in VB so unfortunately it will always be 32bit) and when I try and drag-n-drop a file onto Notepad3 x64 I get an error where it says it cannot find the file and the filename is in Asian characters, although drag-n-drop works correctly when running x32 version of Notepad3, this problem has been around in Notepad2 always too, but I was hoping you could fix it since you are continuing the development so that I can run the x64 version of Notepad3 and be able to drag-n-drop from XYplorer. My OS is Windows 10 x64.

    Here is a screenshot of the error:

    Love notepad 3, two minor irritations drove me to grab the source and make some tweaks:

    1:
    The settings/checksboxes in “Find text” are not remembered between sessions. I almost always used regex searches, and checking the box every time I run the app became irritating. So I added code to save & restore those checkbox states…

    added to SaveSettings():
    IniSectionSetInt(pIniSection, L”fuFlags”, efrData.fuFlags);
    IniSectionSetInt(pIniSection, L”IDC_FINDTRANSFORMBS”, efrData.bTransformBS);
    IniSectionSetInt(pIniSection, L”IDC_WILDCARDSEARCH”, efrData.bWildcardSearch);
    IniSectionSetInt(pIniSection, L”IDC_NOWRAP”, efrData.bNoFindWrap );

    added to LoadSettings():
    efrData.fuFlags |= IniSectionGetInt(pIniSection, L”fuFlags”, 0);
    efrData.bTransformBS = IniSectionGetInt(pIniSection, L”IDC_FINDTRANSFORMBS”, 0);
    efrData.bWildcardSearch= IniSectionGetInt(pIniSection, L”IDC_WILDCARDSEARCH”, 0);
    efrData.bNoFindWrap = IniSectionGetInt(pIniSection, L”IDC_NOWRAP”, 0);

    2:
    Space characters in regular expression searches were not matching correctly.
    eg: if the text was “the quick brown fox”, then a search for “quick brown” would return no matches in regex mode.

    Using the special character class “[[:space:]]” would return a match, that is, a search for “quick[[:space:]]brown” returns the correct match.

    So I fixed this in the function “long Document::FindText…” in Document.cxx by replacing all space charters in the search string with “[[:space:]]” just before it returns “return regex->FindText…”

    So is this project abandoned, after just a few months of existence? I was so glad to learn that someone picked up Notepad2 development again, but now it seems to have been ceased again. There are known bugs (like the broken “strip trailing blanks” functionality) which haven’t been addressed for quite some time, and also the activities on Github are sparselyโ€ฆ

    And open and honest word would be enough: do we need to look for another editor which is still maintained? Or are you planning to continue caring about Notepad3? Thanks for a statement!

      1. Mr Buddha

        Ah, thanks for the reply and the explanation! Sorry for the harsh tone โ€“ that was based on past bad experience with the “Notepad2 mod” author who wouldn’t accept bug reports as some other kind of user contribution, only actual patches (which I cannot provide). I was afraid to learn that Notepad3 has been abandoned and wouldn’t be an alternative anymore.

        So I’m glad to hear that Notepad3 is alive and there will be future releases! For the time being I wouldn’t have problems with unsigned softwareโ€ฆ

      Hi El Kabongo;
      you are right, wrong “find mode” is used for previous find
      (Mode “Left2Right” uses search pattern left-to-right interpretation from text end to text start,
      which needed in your (for Find previous) a new pattern “\1(\d\d)\s”.
      This is not inteded and will be fixed in upcoming release builds (.492+).

    Hello,

    I just came to know your Notepad3 and like it a lot. It has some enhancements over the NP2 that I find very usefull.

    However I have to comment that whenever I use replace of text using regular expressions the programm hangs and I have to kill the process.

    I’m using Windows 10 running over Intel Core i7 with 12 GB in RAM.

        Hi,
        switch on the View->Show Line Endings and use the “Find Next” and “Replace” buttons within the RegEx-Replace dialog to see the single steps:
        “$” refers to the end of the line (just before the CR/LF characters). Replacing it with a character (e.g. a “,”) will put the “,” at the end of the line and move the “$” reference just behind that. Find next “$” is already the current position, inserting the “,” again, moving the eol-reference, chaching you in an infinite (the memory will limit this) loop.

        I think: you want to replace the line-break characters “\r\n” (Windows: CR LF) with a “,” – try this.

          Hi,

          Thank you for your comment.

          To clarify, I’m not trying to change the “\r\n” or the “\n”. I just want to add a “,” and the end of the line. My issue comes from using “replace all” since I’m doing a replacement of only EOF ($) on both Unix and DOS/Windows files.

          If I try to change any character before EOL (e.g. “-$” or “~$”) and press “Replace All” button, the process run OK.

          If I try to change ONLY the EOF (e.g. “$”) and press Replace All button, the editor hangs

          If I use “Find Next + Replace” buttons the only EOF being changed is the current line (where the cursor is), never goes to the next line to make the change.

          Reply ↓
          1. RaPeHoff

            Hey,
            you can not replace the “meta character”($) it will still exists after replacement.
            If you replace “~$” by “,” that is ‘replacing all “~” at line-ends by “,” – the line-end still exists.
            If you try to replace “$” by “,” that is replacing the empty char at the line-end by “,”.
            But the “$” (and the empty-char before) is not replaced, satisfying the next find of the _same_ line-ending (“$”) – so repace-all will catch you in an “infinite” loop then.

            Try to replace “\r\n” by “,\r\n” (resp. “\n” by “,\n”) – this will “add” a “,” at the end of each line.

    The most recent version (386) broke the ALT+W shortcut (“Strip Trailing Blanks”). Trailing tabs are not removed anymore, but in my opinion they should be covered by that as well (as it was the case in Notepad2 and in Notepad3 until version 350).

    Would you please update it with larger icon in toolbar? I’m using 125 scaling so in HiDPI res (mine 1080p) the toolbar is quite small. Perhaps also with minimal/material design, monochrome icon (like in Android, iOS app, Microsoft Edge, etc).

    Where’s the source code posted? Also could you setup a Github (or similar) site for this? I think that would make it a bit easier to track issues.

    Hello,
    I just came across the notepad3 through a post I saw on the notpad2-mod website.

    One thing I really appreciate here over the notepad2-mod is that changes to new versions are listed ๐Ÿ™‚

    Have been using notepad2 and the -mod for years now, but have always missed out on couple of features I had with Emeditor (before it became paid software and bulky). Not sure you would find this useful enough to take a look, but would help me and maybe others if you could consider these:

    This Emeditor that I had, had this one feature I value a lot. As with notepad3, when I search for a text within the file, it, highlights all instances of that word and the cursor moves to the first found instance. On pressing F3 or Find next, it still keeps everything highlighted but moves to the next instance. The Status bar gives information of the number of found items. The advantage is that even without pressing F3 or Find next, the user can just scroll down and see all highlighted items. A menu command allows to remove highlights.

    Also, would it be possible to highlight and make clickable all urls and email addresses.

    Emeditor has got this small but very useful thing. If a file has already been saved, the Save button icon and option under file are not clickable and are greyed out.

    Would really like to know if you think they are useful and possibly implementable.

    Thanks,

    Compared to Notepad2-mod

    Missing questions marks on search and replace windows. Questions marks give all the options for both Regular expression search and Transform backslashes.

    Wildcard search is missing completely.

    One item I wish Notepad2 had, and now Notepad3, …is a ‘Select All’ toolbar button.
    Not exactly a show stopper without it, just an added convenience if it was available.

    Also wondering since I presently have Notepad2 installed as my Windows notepad replacement,
    do I need to uninstall it first, then install Notepad3 as the Windows notepad replacement, or can
    I just run the Notepad3 setup exe with the install taking care of making it the system default Notepad?

    Thank You Sir.

      Better to uninstall Notepad2 before installing Notepad3 because it uses another method for replacing the Windows Notepad. Try Edit -> Select All!
