I am just wondering if its possible to open notepad++ as inline text editor in eclipse. So I can enjoy both features of elipse and notepad++ together. I am targeting html and js files.

1What are the features you enjoy from notepad++? Maybe you can get them in Eclipse. – this.user3272243 Jun 15 '15 at 10:26

The Eclipse IDE is made with Java and Notepad++ is made with Delphi. I don't think they are compatible, unless a new version of Notepad++ had ActiveX capabilities.
I wish Eclipse had the Ctrl+Mouse ability to point many places in the screen and type them at the same time. Other great feature is the Ctrl+Alt+MouseSelection that allows us to make squared selection, copy, paste and type at them...

Both Eclipse and Notepad++ have block selection, copy, and paste. Toggle in Eclipse with `alt+shift+A`. In Notepad++ hold `alt`. – Matt Nov 11 '22 at 15:39
