Syntax and theme for Notepad++

I'm trying to switch over from Sublime to Notepad++ but thesyntax is killing me. I use the Monokai theme on Sublime (along with Lua syntax) but on Notepad++ it just looks awful. The Lua syntax doesn't go well with Monokai at all.

Any suggestions on some good Lua syntax?

 

FPtje even made glua for sublime ._. why would you even want to move

I've always used Notepad++ and it works for me.

 

I've used that, but lately I've been doing some HTML work, which is the main reason I want to try to use Notepad++. Does Sublime have the ability to run HTML in a browser like Notepad++ does?

 

I think so

 

Yeah i read it can somewhere I wanted to use it but couldn't be bothered

That thing isn't working at all.

Gives me an error saying there's no packages to be installed.

EDIT: I just discovered snippets in Sublime, and oh my god these are amazing. Forget Notepad++.

 

The only thing I like about Notepad++ is the fast loading time (for me) and the ability to right click on anything and open it. Sublime Text 2/3 itself is beyond better and incredibly recommended.

Get the package control addon/expansion and you'll love it even more for the simplicity of installing new packages/addons.

I use and suggest to try Codelobster

 

this thread is two years old

 

Still a contribution to the thread.

Best ones out there are JetBrains IDE's. Gotta pay for them unless your a student

 

Still on Notepad++

Although I also use IDEs for things like Java and Android (e.g. Eclipse, NetBeans, Android Studio, etc.).
