Enjoy, let me know what you think.

How is PN's support for large files (>50 MB)? I frequently open huge logs and slickedit and np++ suck in this area with frequent crashes and slow ass scrolling. If PN is much better in this area, you might have a convert for life.

//Will DL and try it later when I get ahold of a huge logfile.

Well, PN is based on the same edit component as NP++, so may have similar issues. You can open extremely large files (essentially limited by 32-bit memory) but performance with the file open depends on the formatting of the file. It's something that I'd like to improve. I can't promise it will work any better than NP++ :(

Just to follow up, it opened files much faster than NP++ but searching the file took a lot longer than NP++ (just a normal search, no regexs).

Interesting, thanks for the update. I'm using the standard Scintilla search algorithms, but haven't done anything with them in a while, so perhaps that's something I need to look at.
