Recently discovered the Foxmarks plug-in for Firefox which seamlessly stores your bookmarks on a central server so that wherever you connect from, the same set are available to you. And then I thought how good it would be to have Notepad++'s settings and macros available from each of the many machines I have to use. What are the chances of such a development taking place?
Perhaps the workaround is to run Notepad++ from a memory stick...
Cheers

I can't make any claim about whether there will ever be a version with online settings, but I run it from a memory stick, and I love it. I would even suggest this over online settings, because you can run it on a computer that doesn't have internet access.
Since it loads everything into memory on startup, even a slow memory stick only hurts the startup time, not the speed of the program once it's started.
Of course, on any computer where I have control over the programs that get installed, I copy my memory stick installation over so that I can associate .txt and other files with Notepad++. I keep a backup copy of all my settings (macros, plugins, etc) on my memory stick so I can easily copy them onto any computer to keep them synchronized.

That's probably the short to middle term solution. It's just doesn't seem such a great leap to store them online somewhere - and then have the app look in that place instead.

First off: I love Notepad++.
