Notepad++ "join lines" applies to the selected text, how to instead join current line to next one

Notepad "join lines" is a bit different than in other editors: instead it applies to selected text.

How does one get the more standard current-line based join lines" - in which one puts the cursor on a line (no selection required!!) and the command .. joins lines?

I work in kde, but have windows installs. I fired up windows, updated npp and tested join lines [ctrl+j) to the join lines in kate/kwrite (ctrl+j) in TDE 3.5.13. I see the issue. With kate/kwrite, merely having the cursor present on a line and pressing ctrl+j joins the next with the current. On npp, nothing occurs unless a selection is present. Npp doesn't seem to have default that says if (!selecttion) join (next,prev). Seems you have either stumbled upon a bug or needed feature request. You may file one at: sourceforge.net/p/notepad-plus/bugs
