Notepad++ FTP best solution
- by yoda
Hi,
I use Notepad++ for more than 2 years now, and there's only 1 thing that it needs for me to be perfect: a actually-working-ftp-plugin.
It has an ftp plugin, written by someone that meanwhile left the project (by meanwhile I mean a long time ago), and since then nobody had courage to improve it. The problem is that it does't handle connections very well. Sometimes it lost connection with the server and literally "blocks", others don't save the files properly, other only load half of the ftp files, etc etc ..
My question is: Is there a way to use ftp and notepad++ (without using its build-in ftp or a ftp client like filezilla)?
I've tried using NetDrive, but it gets stuck sometimes (makes the editor crash), and everytime the temporary file is refreshed by windows / NetDrive, it will load the new file without asking and skip the pointer to the end of the file (very very very annoying).
In case you know how to make the built-in notepad++ ftp plugin work at 100%, I'd be much more happy!
I'd like to have some feedback from you guys :)
(I'm using Windows Vista)
Thanks in advance!
