Installing Notepad++ Lab

· Notepad++ is a nifty little editor (small footprint, doesn’t consume a lot of resources) for writing source code in many languages. It features syntax highlighting for the chosen language, but does not have the nice features of an interactive development environment like Eclipse of Visual Studio.

· Search for Notepad++ on the lab and download the latest version to your virtual machine.

· If your prefer a full-blown IDE you may download Eclipse and add the PHP plug-in for Eclipse instead. I used the tutorials at this link to download Eclipse.

· There is no turn-in for this assignment, you will use Notepad++ in the Install XAMPP lab to create a php test program.
