#### A cross-platform, reimplementation of Notepad++

Notepad Next is yet another text and source code editor.

A cross-platform reimplementation of Notepad++.

The application is stable and usable, but it should not be considered safe for critically important work.

There are numerous bugs and half-working implementations. Pull requests are greatly appreciated.

This snap is an unofficial package maintained by Alan Pope using configuration at <https://github.com/popey/notepadnext-snap>
