Notepad++ is a popular text editor that offers syntax highlighting and other advanced features for programming and scripting. Here's how to install it on the latest version of Kali Linux.
First, download the latest version of Notepad++ from its official website (https://notepad-plus-plus.org/). Click on the "Download" button and select the "Linux x64" option. This will download the Notepad++ compressed file in .tar.gz format.
Next, extract the downloaded archive using the following command in the terminal:
tar -xzvf npp.#.#.#.tar.gz
Replace #.#.# with the actual version number of Notepad++.
This will extract the files to a directory named npp.#.#.#.
Notepad++ relies on the Wine application to run on Linux. If Wine is not installed on your system, you will need to install it using the following command in the terminal:
sudo apt-get install wine
Once Wine is installed, navigate to the directory where you extracted the Notepad++ files and run the notepad++.exe file using the following command:
wine notepad++.exe
This will launch Notepad++ on your Kali Linux system.
That's it! You can now enjoy using Notepad++ on your Kali Linux machine.
