Description
Notepad2-mod-jrb is a light-weight, free and open source Notepad-like
text editor with syntax highlighting for a few commonly used languages.

for NT-based versions of Windows and continues the work of the original
Notepad2 by Florian Balmer as well as the Notepad2-mod fork.
Features [Notepad2-mod]
- Syntax highlighting: HTML, XML, PHP, ASP (JS, VBS), CSS, Javascript,
AutoHotKey & AutoIt3 Scripts, Lua Scripts, CoffeeScript, VBScript,
Visual Basic, Pascal, Tcl, LaTeX, MATLAB, SQL, Ruby, Perl, Python,
C/C++, C#, Java, Assembly, Resource Scripts, Makefiles, Cmake, Bash,
NSIS & Inno Setup Scripts, INI/INF/YAML Configuration Files, Apache
Config Files, Registry Files, PowerShell Scripts, Batch Files, Diff
Files, AviSynth, Markdown and NFO ANSI Art
- Extensive regular expression search and replace support, provided
by the Onigmo engine
- Code folding, bookmarks support & word auto-completion

- Useful word, line and block editing shortcuts including sorting,
comment toggling and control characters insertion
- Rectangular selection (Alt+Mouse)
- Support for Unicode, UTF-8, Unix and Mac text files, whatever the
character encoding and line-ending settings used
New in Notepad2-mod-jrb v4.3.0.1087 (released February 15, 2023)

New in Notepad2-mod-jrb v4.3.0.1086 (released April 02, 2022)

respectively.
By doing so, the following features got new key sequences as shortcuts:
* New Empty Window => Ctrl+Alt+N [previously: Alt+0]

from \000 to \777
\x{#} Unicode character by its hexadecimal codepoint value,
for # => 0 to FFFF
\a Bell character, i.e. \x07
*** \b does NOT match backspace chars, i.e. \x08

Quantifiers:
matches preceeding...
? 0 or 1 time
* 0 or more times
+ 1 or more times
{n} Exactly n times
{m,n} Between m & n times (inclusive)
{,n} Up to =n times
..? Lazy modifier (does incremental backtracking),
e.g.: ??, *?, +? & {m,n}?
..+ Possessive modifier (disallows backtracking),
e.g.: ?+, *+, ++ & {m,n}+
