    Hello

    I don't think there's already a plugin existing for automatic alphabetical tab ordering in Notepad++.  If so could anyone tell me where to get it?

    If not, how can I create plugins?  In what language are they written?

    Thank you! :)

      Plugins are msotly written in C++, although probably any language goes as long as you can interface it with notepad++' messqages and function, Its been done in Delphi and I think theres a visual basic project.

      It'd be pretty difficult though, tabordering is done internally by notepad++ and you need some serious hacks to get it to work (jsut chaging the tabs probably wont do entirely notepad will probably keep some internal state for them aswell, check the notepad++ sourcecode i'd say)

      There will be a dockable plugin for listing of files. I will publish it tonight. Maybe I can extend it in next version with an ordering feature.
