Notepad== Windows Version

This is the repository for the Windows version of this software.

Main repository: https://www.github.com/matthewyang204/NotepadEE

This is the Windows version's source code

The Windows binaries can be downloaded from the releases

Any PC running Windows 7/10 or later works depending on what installer you use

Requirements

  • Windows 10 x64 or later
  • Additional requirements may be needed for building from source:
    • Windows 7 or later is supported for building from source, but Windows 10 or later is recommended
    • A MSYS/MinGW environment (e.g. Git Bash, MSYS2, Cygwin)
    • Python 3.6 or later (Python 3.4 and 3.5 are fine if you are okay with arduous manual builds and such)
    • Inno Setup

Build instructions

  • Please clone the repo and cd into the Windows folder
  • ./configure - configure the stuff
  • make -j<number of CPU cores> - build with pyinstaller
  • make bin-dist - create installer with Inno Setup

Installation

Installing from the precompiled binaries:

  • x64 Windows installers (.exe) for Windows 10 or later are available in the Releases section of this repository
  • Simply download the installer and run it
  • Support:
    • Windows 10 or later for official installers
    • Windows 7 and 8 may work but only with custom-built installers - official installers are not built for these versions due to small Python incompatibilities

Upgrading:

  • You can directly run the new installer to upgrade
