Hi donho – definitely a feature I’m keen on, but I’m just wondering if you can upload some evidence of your progress to the downloads page.

Also, just thinking it might be good to show “Notepad++” as a link to your home page in your project details for these projects. Might help potential pledgers get a feel for it. Just write:

Ben,

Thank you for pledging on this feature.

What I want is provide a download link of sourceforge when the final version is released.

So just be patient…

Hi Donho,

Any document there about how to use the column mode? I just did not find the option. What’s more, I would suggest you work with original notepad++ team to merge the chages … I got 4.8.5 from official notepad++ project and 4.9 from yours, that’s making me a big confused on which features are where ;)

Thanks! Wolfee
