No problem Max

This program is like any other where you just run through the setup process. Then you’ll use it for the same things that you use NotePad and WordPad for, except this is also nice for opening up your programming files. When you open a C file, or something along those lines, it will ONLY highlight the syntax so that the language specific words standout. This will not be able to compile you programs though, it is simply for editing the code quickly.

I saw Notepad on the web somewhere and ended up finding this article. I was wondering: what exactly this is for? and how is it used? Is this a compiler? Does this do something else? I’m new to programming so I kinda don’t understand it.

I downloaded N and chose C as the language. I wrote a simple program. Then I clicked Run> Run… and didn’t know what to do from there. Is the program I wrote supposed to execute? Do I save it or what?

Sorry for the barrage of questions.

Just go into the settings in Notepad and select the “File Extensions” tab. You can use this screen to select file extensions that you want Notepad to be the default for, such as .txt!

Hope that helps.
