Using instructions I found on stackoverflow I am trying to use NppExec to compile my C files, run them, and show their output, all within Notepad++.
However when I try to use it I get this error message (see below) in Console.
Does anyone know how I fix this?
TIA Roger
These are the instructions I followed:
I am using MinGW compiler.
Go to plugins->NppExec->Execute
paste this into there
NPP_SAVE
CD $(CURRENT_DIRECTORY)
C:\MinGW32\bin\gcc.exe -g "$(FILE_NAME)"
a (Remember to give above four lines separate lines.)
Now, give name, save and ok.
Restart Npp.
Go to plugins->NppExec->Advanced options.
Menu Item->Item Name (I have C compiler)
Associated Script-> from combo box select the above name of script.
Click on Add/modify and Ok.
Now assign shortcut key as given in first answer.
