    First, I can't find the search button for the Help forum, so pardon me if this was asked before.

    I'd like to make it easier to write <code> tags and such, when writing HTML.  There appears to be a simple typing macro recorder, but I can't find instructions on recording or scripting more complex things.  For example, in other editors I've made a script that will add <code></code> around the current selection if there is one, or select the current word first if there isn't.

    I'd like to do something similar in N++.  But, if there is already a better way, some full-blown HTML feature pack, I'm all ears.

    Thanks,
    --John

      Macro:  I see, spit out the tags _before_ typing what I want between them.  Handy if I remember to do that first.

      Search:  The only Search I see in the top black band searches SourceForge projects, not the forum.  Searching for the text "search" on the page shows only mention within messages. 

      ...  Ah, I see, the pull down "Forum".  It's greyed out, so I never thought to click on that since I was already here.

      WebEdit:  I think that's what I was looking for.  Thanks.

      The search is at the ebottom of the SF black Forum menu. Hopefully we migrate to phpBB soon and the recurring issue will go away.

      For 2/, get the WebEdit plugin. An alternative is to define a macro like this:
      <<code></code>>
      <Ctrl+Left>
      <Ctrl+Left>
      <Ctrl+Left>
      <Right>
