Notepad2 with Ruby syntax highlighting

Notepad2I use Notepad2 on a daily basis, it’s one of my favourite apps. I like Notepad2 because it’s a small, fast,free and has syntax highlighting for HTML and other common languages (CSS, JAVA, C++, etc).

My only grasp is the lack of tabs, so I have to keep several windows open and things can get clutered very fast but I guess that’s the price to pay for a very lightweight app. I can even put it in a usb pen and run from there or replace Windows default “notepad.exe”.
Anyway, Pablo Hoch has made a few modifications to implement Ruby syntax highlighting, instance and class variables, keywords and other small enhacements. Overall, it’s a very nice improvement and should be downloaded over the original Notepad2.

You can download Pablo Hoch’s Ruby enhaced Notepad2 or visit the original site and view other great apps.
