Is there a way I can have bullets and numbering in Notepadd++ for lists.
The bullet is Alt + 0149 (must have NumLock on and use the number pad).
Right-click, and then click Adjust List Indents. Change the distance of the bullet indent from the margin by clicking the arrows in the Bullet position box, or change the distance between the bullet and the text by clicking the arrows in the Text indent box.
On the Control panel menu or Paragraph panel menu, select Bullets And Numbering. In the Bullets And Numbering dialog box, select Bullets from the List Type menu. Select a different bullet character, and then click OK.
The "Alt code" for a bullet point is Alt + 7 . Make sure you use the number pad. Alternatively, just write a nice ASCII hyphen.
Notepad++ doesn't support this, as it is a text editor. However, on Windows we have "Alt codes" for all text fields, and the text field in Notepad++ is no exception. The "Alt code" for a bullet point is Alt + 7. Make sure you use the number pad.
Alternatively, just write a nice ASCII hyphen. Your text file's readers will thank you!
Indentation can be done with just tabs or Edit->Indent menu
Notepad++ is just a text editor. As long as no-one implements a custom plugin that takes advantage of special unicode characters looking like bullets, you probably need to stick with "-" and "1)" kind of syntax.
