    This plugin mimics the "open selected file" in PSPad. I am a PHP developer and i often see an 'require_once("../this/is/some/file.php");'. In pspad you can select the whole path (../this/is/some/file.php) and open it from the menu. Now you can do the same in notepad++. Just select the whole path and press alt+o, or use the button in the toolbar on top. It will open the file automatically. The plugin understands the relative path. The code is also available on https://bitbucket.org/sgezel/quickopenplugin

    Design Patterns Library

    Design Patterns Library

    A comprehensive design patterns library implemented in C#

    A comprehensive design patterns library implemented in C#, which covers various design patterns from the most commonly used ones to the lesser-known ones. Get familiar with and learn design patterns through moderately realistic examples. In software engineering, a design pattern is a general repeatable solution to a commonly occurring problem in software design. A design pattern isn't a finished design that can be transformed directly into code. It is a description or template for how to solve a problem that can be used in many different situations. In addition, design patterns allow developers to communicate using well-known, well-understood names for software interactions. Know when to use a certain design pattern, and when not to. No design pattern is a 42 - the answer to life, the universe and everything. There are situations in which every design pattern easily becomes an antipattern.
