    There's some features in SciTE I think they could be very useful in Notepad++ too:

    1) set minimal width of line number margin. For example, line.margin.width=1+
    2) add a new line at document end when you save it if there's not: ensure.final.line.end=1
    3) visualize wrap simbol at begin of wrapped line instead of at end, or both. For example, wrap.visual.flags=3
    4) set indentation size for continued wrapped lines. For example, wrap.visual.startindent=2

    If you can't set them already in hidden options, I propose to introduce them.

      1/ Already in 5.4.2
      2/ Ctrl+End, hit Enter if text not ok
      3/ +4/ See https://apps.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/notepad-plus/index.php?title=Managing_line_lengths . Capitalisation may change over the next few days.

      1. Good, how can I change it?

      2. If Notepad++ do this automatically (if you set it), it will be better

      3 and 4. I can't access, that page requires an authentication through username and password.

        I agree 2 is important.  Many compliers require your source files to end with a new line.

        Lucas, I suggest you add this to IdeaTorrent. I'll +1 it

      1. Currently the minimal width is fixed and set to 3. The width is updated dynamically (as needed) when lines >= 1000 are visible.

      Authentification: replace the "https://" protocol by "http://", and you will browse the wiki as anonymous guest.
      Your SF user name and password that you need to post here are all it takes to use the https version. The Wiki, like all SF Hosted Apps, uses the SF authentification data, not more (but not less).

      An annoying side effect is that, if you browse a page and then decide to log in, you are sent back to main page, since the SF authentification never heard about the Wiki.

      Ok, but how can I change this value?

      @christian cuvier: thanks. It's strange anyway it requests authentication even if I'm already authenticated. Mah.

      SF seems to be working on this, so this confusing need to login 2,3,4 times could vanish soon.
