Installation

Put NppMenuSearch.dll into the plugins\ subfolder of the Notepad++ installation folder.

Usage

The plugin adds a text box to the Notepad++ toolbar.

• Use Ctrl+M or the mouse to select it.
• Type some characters, e.g. "number con".
  As you type, a drop-down list of found menu items appears.
• UP and DOWN keys can be used to navigate through the drop-down list
• TAB switches between the menu items list and the preference dialog items list.
• ESC abandons the search.
• ENTER executes the currently selected menu item and closes the drop-down list.
  If a preferences dialog item was selected, the preferences dialog with that item highlighted.
• There is a menu item to repeat the most recently used command. You should assign a keyboard
  shortcut to this if you need it often. This would effectively save you two keystrokes.
• The search results window has a popup menu for changing shortcuts.
