How to install¶
To manually install the plug-in, in the plugins
directory in the Notepad++
installation directory, create a folder named NppTags
and place NppTags.dll
and ctags.exe
in that directory. Then (re)start Notepad++.
Provided ctags executable¶
In the zip is a precompiled version of ctags.exe
. This is always a recent
version of the Windows executables provided by the Universal Ctags project
when the plugin was released.
You can always try to replace the provided version of ctags.exe
with a
more recent version.
Note that is you are upgrading from an older build of ctags you may have to put
your local ctags.cnf
or .ctags
file to a file in the .ctags.d
directory. See the Files section in the documentation of ctags for
more details.
