How to delete the current line and add a new line in Notepad++?

These two operations are very common but I can't find any key setting how to do them in Notepad++. Can any plugin do this job?


Ctrl + L shall be able to cut the current line and Ctrl + Shift + L shall be able to remove the current line.

You can see and change hotkeys in Settings > Shortcut Mapper... > Scintilla Commands. Look for SCI_LINEDELETE and SCI_LINECUT.

The version of my Notepad++ is 6.1.1.


Ctrl + L will cut the line.

Ctrl + Shift + L will delete the line (i.e. not copying it to clipboard).

Please note this works in more applications than just Notepad++!
