How to go to the bottom of the file on startup in Notepad++
I know this is completely unreasonable feature for a text editor to have, however, when I edit various files, I almost always have to do it at the end of the file.
Is there a feature in Notepad++ that will move the cursor, caret and focus to the bottom of the file?
Or perhaps open Notepad++ with a command-line parameter that forces cursor to the bottom
Solution 1:
No. But you have two options:
- Notepad++ is GNU. Get the sources, patch, build.
- Open the file, hit Ctrl+End
Solution 2:
If you open files from a shortcut or command line, you can add flags to specify the line number and column to place the cursor, e.g.
"notepad++.exe" -n12 -c34 license.txt
(note no spaces between -n/-c and line/column numbers).
To open the file at the bottom, use a very large line number, e.g.
"notepad++.exe" -n999999 filename
