Programmer's Notepad

Programmer's Notepad
I intend to release Programmer’s Notepad 2.3 as the new stable release towards the end of this week. One late bug fix has added a new string, so all translations need at least this one minor update.

Ubuntu is a very complete and full-featured Linux distribution, but no operating system can come with everything you want.
