PythonScript plugin for Notepad++ 1.0

The PythonScript plugin for Notepad++, developed by Dave Brotherstone, brings the power and flexibility of Python directly into the editor. It exposes Notepad++ and its underlying Scintilla component through a clean, Pythonic API, allowing you to manipulate documents, selections, tabs, and editor settings in real time. You can create custom commands, bind scripts to menu items or keyboard shortcuts, hook into editor events (such as file open, save, or buffer switch), and perform advanced batch operations using Python’s rich standard library.

The plugin includes a script manager and an interactive console for rapid testing, supports startup scripts, and integrates smoothly with Notepad++’s interface. Whether you’re formatting text, refactoring code, running project‑wide search and replace, or connecting Notepad++ to external tools, PythonScript turns the editor into a programmable workstation for everyday automation.
