I am great fan of Notepad ++ for all text editing needs from plan text file to xml files. Notepad++ has very robust plugin framework and many useful plugins already developed. I wanted to install XML Tool plugin to NPP , I thought it would be as straight forward as any other plugin installations. But I have straggled lot while installing XML Tool plugin , at the end I have succeed
Here I am putting my endeavor
- Download Notepad ++ from here and install it.
- Download XML Tools plugin from here and unzip it <Install_Home>/plugin folder.
- Please note that external libs are required. It has been documented that I can be loaded the 'Notepad++ Plugins' project page. Here the problem starts, I didn’t find any such link where I can download external libs.
- Go to Plugins >> Plugin Manager >> Show Plugin Manager, select “Installed” tab and select “XML Tools” and click on reinstall.
Now you are get set to use XML Tools plugin.
