**Notepad++ Is A Proper Text Editor**

Windows default "notepad.exe" is not, never ever use windows notepad.exe. Never use windows wordpad.exe to edit text files.

In PMC editing community when most of the tutorials say //use proper text editor// it means exactly that, a proper text editor instead of the garbage that comes with default windows install. Notepad++ is a proper text editor.

Notepad++ is free and open source text editor, it gets frequent updates. Has all the basic stuff like dark mode, syntax highlighting for various programming languages and scripting languages, C++, HTML, PHP, XML, etc.
