Notepad++ is a free, open-source text editor that provides powerful features without compromising on simplicity. It is a popular choice among developers and programmers because of its lightweight, customizable, and extensible nature. In this tutorial, we will discuss how to install Notepad++ on Fedora CoreOS Latest.
Before we get started with the installation process, you need to ensure the following prerequisites are met:
Notepad++ is not available in the official Fedora repositories, so you need to install the Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL) repository to get access to it. To do so, run the following command in the terminal:
sudo dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm
Notepad++ is a Windows-based application, so you need to install Wine to run it on your Fedora CoreOS Latest. Wine is a compatibility layer that allows you to run Windows applications seamlessly on Linux. To install Wine, run the following command:
sudo dnf install wine
You can download the latest version of Notepad++ from their official website. To do so, open a web browser and navigate to https://notepad-plus-plus.org/downloads/. Choose the appropriate version of Notepad++ based on your system architecture and download the setup file.
To install Notepad++, navigate to the location where the setup file is saved and right-click on it. Select the "Open With Wine Windows Program Loader" option from the drop-down menu. Wine will automatically start the installation process, just like installing a Windows application.
Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation of Notepad++.
In this tutorial, we have discussed how to install Notepad++ on Fedora CoreOS Latest. We installed the EPEL repository, Wine, and then downloaded and installed Notepad++ using Wine. Notepad++ is now installed and ready to use.
