Notepad++ Plugin Manager
Notepadd++ Plugin Manager is a plugin for Notepad++ that allows you to install, update and remove plugins from the Notepad++ application.
A centrally hosted XML file holds the list of plugins, that the plugin manager downloads and processes against the list of installed plugins.
Key features include:
Install, Update and Remove all existing plugins.
Notify when an installed plugin has an update available, and allow the user to update directly.
Calculate dependencies between plugins, any plugin can depend on another plugin, which will be installed automatically if the user installs the initial plugin.
Install all supplemental files as well as the plugin file itself (e.g. config, doc, extra libraries).
Automatic installation of the correct version (ANSI/Unicode) for your Notepad++.
Validation of DLLs copied, against a central list of valid files. This slightly mitigates the risk of automatically downloading updates.
Only plugins that are compatible with your Notepad++ are shown.
Plugins can be put into categories .
Plugin Manager is able to update itself, and will notify the user when an update is available.
Proxies are supported, just change the setting.
Updates can be ignored, and the user will not be alerted to that update again.
Please Note: for Vista / Windows 7: In order to update the plugin manager to 1.0.8 , you need to run Notepad++ as administrator, update plugin manager, then everything will run properly under a normal user. Future updates to Plugin Manager will automatically run as administrator.
