Based on the powerful editing component Scintilla, Notepad++ is written in C++ and uses pure Win32 API and STL which ensures a higher execution speed and smaller program size. By optimizing as many routines as possible without losing user friendliness, Notepad++ is trying to reduce the world carbon dioxide emissions. When using less CPU power, the PC can throttle down and reduce power consumption, resulting in a greener environment.

Notepad++ v5.8.3 new features and fixed bugs (from v5.8.2):

1. A new application icon.

2. Add the capacity to open x64 system files.

3. Add Edit context menu command.

4. Add a new ability: sub-menus commands can be in the context menu.

5. Fix context menu reload problem (plugin commands reload fails).

6. Fix searching up fails while code page is set to Chinese/Japnese/Korean bug.

7. Remove unsupported encodings by Microsoft Windows : ISO-8859-10, ISO-8859-11, ISO-8859-16.

8. Fix move down current lines bug while moving down on the last line.

9. Fix crash issue : crash in the next launch after setting MS-DOS-Style as default language.

10. Fix zoom bug on the second view.

11. Fix a heap corruption of ColourPicker.

12. Due to UAC issue, doLocalConf.xml is ignored under vista and windows 7, if Notepad++ is installed in "Program files" directory.

The new application icon looks nice. Now, if they could just use native Windows widgets on the toolbars, it'd stop looking like an out-of-place Linux program.

+1, Although the current one dont look "too" bad. ( There are much worst in terms of Out of Place linux Program. )

Notepad2 might worth a look if anyone are interested for lightweight one

I cannot seem to install this on Win 7 64-bit. I completely uninstalled the old version even, and it keeps complaining about not being able to open some files :(

I'm running it without any problem on Win7 Ultimate x64, you don't need to uninstall the old version. Which files you're having probs with?
