Copy Line Cursor is On Without Selection about notepad-plus-plus

[dail8859]

It is already possible. Ctrl+Shift+T is set to copy the current line. However in the recent versions of N++ Ctrl+Shift+T was also mapped to open the most recent tab. (There is a shortcut conflict currently). You must change either the shortcut for "Restore Recent Closed File" or for SCI_CUTLINE

Thanks, I got it working mostly.
I'm sure you know, Visual Studios Ctrl+C copies what is selected or if nothing selected copies the current line. It is an option you can turn on or off. For me that would be better than having to remember a different key combination.

Yes, technically it is possible. Notepad++ uses Scintilla as the underlying component to handle the text editing. There is a Scintilla option called SCI_COPYALLOWLINE that Notepad++ does not expose as an option to change (although maybe something worth adding to Notepad++). I believe the only way to enable this is through a plugin, something like NppExec or Python Script

[dail8859]

Nope! Disregard what I just said. Its not an option, its an actual command but it doesn't look like you can set up a shortcut for it...which is odd.

I was just about to say, I should learn about plugins.

Have a look at this plugin Notepad-VisualStudioLineCopy. The source for the .NET/C# variant can be found at Npp-VisualStudio-LineCopy.

Or, use the Python Script plugin and the appropriate Python script (search for it on the forum) to accomplish the same effect.

Thank You, that was perfect.
