Notepad ++ has been installed for some time via Wine, and it works quite well. Although this application is not developed natively and actually runs over Wine, now we have it a single command or click away. The latest news is that Notepad ++ now is unofficially available as a Snap pack for Gnu / Linux users. This is why Linux users had to settle for the alternatives to Notepad ++. The problem with Notepad ++ is that it was exclusive to the Windows platform as the developer has repeatedly refused to develop it for Gnu / Linux. After all that time, an easy solution arrived that will allow us install and use this program on Ubuntu and other Gnu / Linux distributions. Notepad ++ lovers have long missed the availability of Notepad ++ for Gnu / Linux. In my own experience, it is a very good option for source code editing when programming from Windows. This is a free and open source editor which is the favorite of many programmers. In the next article we are going to take a look at Notepad ++.
