Eclipse plugin for Notepad++

Question

I have tried associating Notepad++ as the default editor for some of my file types inside eclipse. However, they open in an external window. I would like them to open inside my IDE.

Is there any Eclipse plugin for integrating Notepad++ inside Eclipse as an internal editor?

Answer 1

The closest existing project is Jintilla, which provides an integration path for Eclipse to use Scintilla. Install it by placing the JAR file in the plugins directory, then restart Eclipse.
