Welcome!

This project provides a set of Python scripts that allow client apps to automate Notepad++ using the excellent Python Script plugin and the Python SimpleXMLRPCServer modules. Demo apps in IronPython, C#, and now a "pure"-Python 2.7 console app - does not require .Net!

Features:

• Automate Notepad++ from any app that can do XML-RPC (which means just about ANY app!)
• XML-RPC server runs on a separate thread, so the GUI stays responsive.
• Now includes a "pure"-Python 2.7 console demo app; no .Net required!
• Demo apps operate in multi-instance mode, so you can have multiple Notepad++ windows open at once if desired
• Demonstrates how to configure and call the Python Script XML-RPC interface from various languages
• The .Net demo app, when running in USEPYTHON (IronPython) mode, uses the Python SimpleXMLRPCServer and JSON standard library modules - simple, reliable, time-tested
• The C# side uses the excellent Cook Computing XML-RPC and Newtonsoft JSON.Net modules
• Plans to add a ZeroMQ interface as well (future)

Thanks for stopping by!

I hope you enjoy using the scripts and demo apps.
