Notepad++ released 5.0 some time ago, and recently a rebuffed version. It’s looking good!
I have some small adjustments for myself and maybe for you.
[ctrl]+[enter] now opens the function suggest by default which was the QuickText Replacer. Look in the shortcutmapper for this one (#36), just clear it and you’re back to normal.
The new function hinting system is great. I wish there was a way to add () when inserting a function name, and move the cursor in the brackets. Additionally, some comment on the function’s use would be helpful on hovering.
I noticed some people were coming to my site to find out how to change the font size, well, this is easy, just hit [ctrl] and scroll your mouse!
For entering some Quicktext please see my Quicktext Wiki.
[edit]
Don’t forget to install the Quicktext plugin which you can find here.

Hello,
I have some troubles instaling the quicktext plugin as I get this message that says: ‘The ANSI plugin is not compatible with your Unicode Notepad. This plugin is not compatible with current version of notepad.’. Any guesses?
