Hello,
I work with Notepad++ and I think it is a good editor. Now I must write a new batch-file in different languages (like portuguese, german, polish, etc.) and I have to insert some ASCII-signs for the regional letters. I know that some editors like UltraEdit 32 have an ASCII-table where you can insert the signs. Has the N++ such a option like UltraEdit??
Best regards,

While I do appreciate when people promote my plugin, I'm not sure if that's what the original poster is asking for in this case.
Simple Script does indeed include scripts in the default settings to change non-english letters back and forth between the actual letters and their HTML equivalents (e.g. "ñ" = "ñ"), but that's not necessarily what he wants.
If you just need to have a handy way to enter the letters, the suggestion above of using charmap is probably the best solution. I'd even go so far as to suggest setting up a shortcut for it using the Run menu.
If you need some way to quickly look up ASCII characters, the TextFX plugin provides a handy chart (I suggest opening a new document first): TextFX-> TextFX Tools-> Insert Ascii Chart or Character. I've used it so often that I saved this chart in my Favorites with the Explorer plugin.

What do you do with such a chart?
do you search a letter, copy it and paste it?
I agree with Claudio, there must be some ascii chart table in NP++ to insert with a simple click an ascii symbol in the text.
Actually I use simplescript.
I type the letters with my keyboard or use texter (macros) for letters I do not have on my keyboard and then I convert them all with simplescript.
simplescript is really a great invention for np++
The only problem is that I have sometimes 10-100 files open and I have to run the script 10 til 100 times.

Exactly. Plus I also use it as a handy reference to look up the ASCII codes of characters when I occasionally use a HEX Editor.
--The only problem is that I have sometimes 10-100 files open and I have to run the script 10 til 100 times.
I'm planning to eventually include a "Run on all open files" option in Simple Script, and perhaps the ability to run it on a series of files without opening them. You'll have to be patient though, because I've got some other features to add first before I can get to it.

Not that I know of, but you can try charmap instead (start, run, "charmap")
try simplescript plugin.
It does a wonderful job.

thank you fidvo
I'm working on a new plugin that should make entering these special characters easier. You can read about it here:

I hope to have it done next week some time.
