Directory for Notepad++ plugins
Overview
How to install?
Usually, the only installation procedure plugins require is to- place the dll in the plugins subfolder of the Notepad++ install folder;
- place any configuration file it comes with in plugin\config
- preferrably, place all documentation files in plugin\doc, or in some subfolder of it
If explicit installation instructions supplement or override this general procedure, then they must be followed carefully.
Where are the plugins?
Many plugins listed here are in the NppPlugins project, so that they have dedicated forums. You can also monitor Plugin Development forum for news and provide feedback there as well. Other plugins are separate Sourceforge hosted projects, and some are outside the Sourceforge framework.Disclaimer
The presence of a plugin in the table below only guarantees that it exists and can be downloaded. As developers are not perfect, plugins aren't either. They can have bugs and, worse still, cause unstability in Notepad++ because things they should do transparently are not always crystalline enough. Stability and usability ratings may be added in the future.Plugins

| NppAutoIndent plugin has 'smart' indentation for C-style languages, such as C/C++, PHP, Java and such. It's the first release so don't expect it to be flawless, and of course it might not be completely to your preferences ;) There is NO support for HTML/XML and such, maybe later, tag matching is much more difficult to implement. | Harrybharry | |||
| NppCryptPlugin - Encrypt/Decrypt data with ciphers like Blowfish or AES using OpenSSL. | lorenzmpower | |||

| ufo-pu55y | |||
| Demo plugin, supersedes the old Insertion plugin. | donho | |||
| First version of a new plug-in: NppScripting. It allows you to modify text, insert new menu items, receive and handle some events from editor and all of it via JavaScript. The plugin runs all the scripts in plugins\nppscripting\includes at load time. Usually, all the scripts - plain Javascript .js files - will install some menu or hotkey that would do something useful on demand. There are some sample scripts:
Happy scripting! | Kremer Eugen | |||
| First alpha version for a new snippet / template plug-in: NppSnippets. The basic framework is done and works. Similarity with the TextPad Clip Library is no accident. To insert a snippet simply double click on the item in the list and the snippet is inserted at the current cursor position. | ffes | |||
| A plugin of sorts. | Josh Harris | |||
| NppToR provides R language syntax highlighting, code folding, and auto-completion to Notepad++. In addition, it provides Rgui style code passing between Notepad++ and the Rgui. Technically, this qualifies more as a companion application than as a plugin. | halpo | |||
| Oberon-2 Lexer provides Oberon-2 language syntax highlighting to Notepad++. | Alexander Iljin | |||
| Obide provides IDE capabilities for XDS Oberon-2 developers in Notepad++: autocompletion, source navigation, code hints, etc. | Alexander Iljin | |||
| OFIS (Open File In Solution) lets you index specific folders and possible specific types of resources (xml-, cpp, py-files) for a fast indexing of files. Just like it is done in Eclipse, without the crashes. It also has the option to monitor named directiores so if you delete/add files in the folders it will automatically remove them from indexed files ( for example if you update your trunk through svn/perforce/whatnot ). | incfred | |||
| Provides integration with Perforce. Checkout, mark for add, mark for delete and revert operations are supported through the plugin's menu. Also, the file is automatically checked out when you start typing in it. | Henrik Ravn | |||
| This plugin performs PHP scripts without the need to install PHP/Apache. It recognises a number of scripting commands to have Notepad++/Scintilla perform a number of actions: // activate N++ tab 0 in View 0 nppUserCommand("NPPM_ACTIVATEDOC",0,0); // get trimmed all text from active tab to variable $json $json=trim(sciGetText()); To use, write your script and use the default F9 key to run. Works even on the Portable version. Here is some documentation. | Andrzej Kmicic | |||
| This plugin essentially allows you to install, update and remove all the existing plugins, including itself, right from inside Notepad++. It will notify you when a plugin you use has been updated, and allow you to update it, simply by clicking the "update" button. The update can be delayed or ignored. It has a centrally located list of plugins, which will be kept up to date. Additional features:
| Dave Brotherstone | |||
| Enables "free" margin for plugin usage on either view. | Thell Fowler | |||
| This plugin provides a cooperative way to get installed plugins automatically updated. It is cooperative as it requires both provider and user to maintain a .ini file, used to check versions on both server and client. Complete description at http://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=5105667 | Franco Stellari | |||
| The plugin transforms a selected text to whatever you want, once your transformer (a console program which takes inputs then generates an output) is set properly with Pork to Sausage plugin. The attractive part of this plugin is its flexibility: one (or more) small program(s) can be written in any language (such in java or .Net), or usage of the other programs in order to transform your selected text in Notepad++. Up to 20 commands are customizable. | donho | |||
| A Powershell syntax highlighter plugin. It's also a good demostration of syntax highlighter plugins for Notepad++. Full information at http://poshcode.org/notepad++lexer/ | Thell Fowler | |||

| Dave Brotherstone | |||
| Quicktext is a Notepad++ plugin for text substitution with multi field inputs. It's similar to Tab Triggers in TextMate, Resharper/CodeRush in Visual Studio. PLEASE UPGRADE to Notepad++ v5.4.4 if QuickText isn't functional.. | Alphpt | |||
| A Notepad++ plugin that allows users to develop regular expressions and test them against their open documents. Full details can be found here. | lbarsanti | |||
| RegRexPlace: a plugin to do "regular regular-expression replaces". Useful when you have often-used regex replacements. I personally use this when writing posts on forums, so I can use my own simplified markup and automatically generated BBCode markup from that. A sample .ini file is included. | f0dder | |||
| Adds a toolbar button that reloads the current document from disk while maintaining line and focus unchanged. | Johannes Häfner | |||
| RunMe allows to execute the currently open file, based on its shell association. | Franco Stellari | |||
| This plugin is used by other plugins. It retrieves the marker symbol type for a line marker from Scintilla. If the marker has not had a marker symbol defined to it the value SC_MARK_AVAILABLE type is returned. This allows plugins to cooperate when when using line markers. | Thell Fowler | |||
| This plugin simply configures the Scintilla components on startup to allow scrolling up to one page down past the end of file. Currently (as of Notepad++ 5.6.2) there is no GUI setting to enable this feature. It may be added at a later time, but even then if you are using an older version of Notepad++, you may still want to use this plugin. | Alexander Iljin | |||
| A nice done Find in files plugin with which you have a lot of extra informations. | Jose Javier Sanjosé | |||
| With this you can encrypt/decrypt whole documents or selected text with your own key. It is useful for storing sensitive information like logins and you don't want them lying around in a plaintext file. | Dominic Tobias | |||
| This plugin gets your selected text, saves it as file in the system temporary directory with the extension you customized. Then it launches the file - Windows system opens the file with its associated program(by using the extension). In my personal usage, I defined crt and pdf as extension, then I can launch pdf or show a certificate on the fly, by selecting a Base64 text and executing the defined commands. Up to 20 commands (20 extensions) are customizable in this plugin. | - |
| Simple script plug-in allows you to make up your script from buid-in functions then execute the script in linear. It was originally designed to help format e-books for easier reading on a computer screen, but it's generic enough to use for a variety of different purposes. | Todd Hadley (Fidvo) |
| Code snippet and now fully functional SurroundWith functionality in one plugin.
| Rajesh Kumar | |||
| A plugin of sorts. | Greg Bullock | |||
| A cross breed between Exuberant CTags and FunctionList so as to allow a hierarchical overview of a single source file or a set of them. Supports interactive drag and drop of source files into sessions (unrelated to Notepad++'s). Requires .NET framework 2.0 or higher. | ufo-pu55y | |||
| Another soource switcher, but more flexible, as it handles .c <-> .h | ViZion8 | |||
| No kidding, Notepad++ speakes now. Use SpeechPlugin, you can make Notepad++ dictate your text or source code. Of course, the speakers is necessary. | Jim Xochellis | |||
| Here is the spelchecker spellcheker spellchecker which can corect correct your typos in your langage (damn!) language. You need to instal install Aspell before using it. This thread (in french) provides more details and features an email address to request an installer from. | Jens Lorenz | |||
| The alpha version of a spellchecker somewhat like the Office fixture. | ksharif | |||
| Integrated Subversion support utilizing TortoiseSVN's command line features. This plugin has support for Update, Commit, and Revert. | Brandon Cannaday | |||

| TagsView is a generic plugin which provides user interface for ctags parsed result. Currently supported editors are Notepad++ and AkelPad. | dv__ | |||
| TextFx is one of the first plugins while the plugin system was available in Notepad++. You will be amazed by its huge number of features and its small size. Here is Text FX official site with detail Information. Note that the npp-plugins project hostsv0.25, but Notepad++ ships with 0.26. | Chris Severance | |||
| TopMost integrate with the native AlwaysOnTop functionality and adds some additional functionality such as a toolbar button and memory of the state between sessions. | Franco Stellari | |||
| TrayMenu allows to add features to the Notepad++ tray icon. | Franco Stellari | |||
| TTS Assistant allows to edit the TTS files easily. You can add/remove the quote marks as well as the & marks from your selected lines. It also allows you to break the text into lines such that each line contains an XML element. | Trung Nguyen | |||
| A cross platform GUI for several code formatter, beautifier and indenter like AStyle, GNU Indent, GreatCode, HTML Tidy, Uncrustify and many more. Main feature is a live preview to directly see how the selected formatting option affects the source code. Several languages supported, among which far eastern ones, and a translation tool is also available at the project's files page. | thomas_-_s | |||
| WebEdit is another attempt to integrate a user-configurable code template collection into Notepad++. With WebEdit you have the following options:
All keyboard shortcuts can be assigned/modified using the standard Shortcut Mapper. For more information see the WebEdit.txt help file. | Alexander Iljin | |||
| What if you can have a short overview of your open documents in Notepad++. This overview is dockable and gave you the full capability as the tabs have.
| Jens Lorenz | |||
| XBrackets Lite allows to autocomplete brackets ([{""}]) i.e. it inserts corresponding right bracket when the left bracket is typed. The plugin uses "smart" autocompletion:
| Dovgan Vitaliy | |||
| This plugin is a small set of useful tools for editing XML with Notepad++. The plugin is libXML2-based. The plugin features are:
| Nicolas Crittin | |||
| Zen Coding plugin for Notepad++. Actually, this is the NppScripting plugin with a different start.js and includes - the .dll file is identical, so replacing it won't have any impact. | Сергей Чикуёнок | |||
| Zen Coding plugin for Notepad++, but rewritten in Python, and with better integration in N++ - shortcuts can be configured from the Shortcut Mapper. | davegb3 |
