    AnalysePlugin
    Shorten your time of reading mega bytes of log files! DE 2016-01 Supporting Don HO's NotePad++ see http://notepad-plus-plus.org/ This sources are a dockable pattern search plugin for Notepad++ version 5.1 or later. With this plugin you can search for multiple patterns in any of the opened documents in NotePad++. You may want to tune your search using all fancy tricks from NPP like regular expressions or escaped patterns and give each of the searches different colors. The result will be stored in a dockable window in same ordering as in the origin and a double click allows you to jump to the original position. It is designed to treat log-files of typical size like 60MB. More features can be found in the help dialogue of the plugin. For generating the dll file I use a msdev compiler. If you like to port it to other OSs just let me know your changes and I'll incorporate it. Best Regards, Mattes H.

    Mozc

    Mozc

    Mozc - a Japanese Input Method Editor designed for multi-platform

    Mozc is an open source Japanese Input Method Editor (IME) developed by Google, designed to provide Japanese text input across multiple operating systems including Android, macOS, Windows, GNU/Linux, and Chromium OS. The project originated as a subset of Google Japanese Input, released publicly under the BSD 3-Clause license for community use and development. Mozc offers core IME functionality such as text conversion, prediction, and dictionary-based input, enabling users to efficiently type and edit Japanese text. While Mozc shares much of its codebase with Google’s internal IME, it operates as an independent open source project without official support, guarantees, or stable release cycles. Developers can build Mozc from source for their preferred platform, and the repository includes detailed build instructions for Android, Linux, macOS, and Windows environments.
