    Hi! I like and use Notepad++. I think it's a good program but overkill for some of my purposes. I use it to edit C modules but EditPadLite for other text files. That said, I have on my Win11/64 laptop in the ShellNew menu two entries for "Notepad++ Document." I know one is for C modules but not what the other one is. Also, I find that this description is not good enough. On my computers, I have extension displays on, so I know the file type, but I really want the description to be more verbose. I request an option to change the file type description to something better, such as "C Module," "BASIC Module" or "Text File." EditPadLite does that. :)
