From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

What does notepad++ offer that other tools don't?

Nice formating for config files and instant boot up when opening said files.

I always wished someone would port Notepad++ over to Rust and hopefully make it cross-platform.

I am testing Lapce and I can see it as an alternative in the future
