Notepad++ update

Post by RPC »

Hi all
1) I have recently dowloaded latest version of Notepad++ for creating/editing my HMG code. I find following important features missing.
1. Auto-suggestion for codes is missing. Pls see enclosed SS where typing str ( shows arguments required and what the function does.
2. On clicking Function list icon I don't see any functions in right side window.
Can anyone suggest how to get these features in latest version of Notepad++.
If this is not possible. Pls suggest any other alternative code editor.
2) Does HMG provide any capability to convert PDF files to TEXT or CSV format maintaining original layout of PDF file.

Thanks

I don't think there is nowhere such a application who can, besides Adobe Acrobat?
Convert PDF into readable text is a thing I sure would like to have... SumatraPDF maybe? Or this: https://pdftotext.com/
There's nothing you can do that can't be done...
