Commands
|
||
|
|
allow you to execute applications from Notepad++, for example to open
|
||
|
|
your current file in a browser or compile it with some external
|
||
|
|
compiler. You can pass the program command line parameters based on
|
||
|
|
the current status of your document.

<h3>To run a new command:</h3>
|
||
|
|
<p>Sselect <span class="menu_item">Run->Run...</span>. A dialog will pop up
|
||
|
|
asking for the path to the program and possible any command line
|
||
|
|
parameters. You can use the browse button to search for your program.
|
||
|
|
The drop down list provides recently run programs. The command line
|
||
|
|
arguments can also be based on the status of the current document,
|
||
|
|
and are always enclosed in $(...), where … can be:
