Notepad++ 5.8.1 now out, with upgraded Scintilla editor component
Notepad++ is a great open source text editor. In addition to being open source, it's extensible and incredibly nimble for a beast of its power. I often use Java-based jEdit or XUL-based Komodo Edit, and compared to those two, Notepad++ is blazing fast.
The Notepad++ team released 5.8 a short while ago, but it was worth holding out on the upgrade -- because they've now released 5.8.1 with a couple of important bug fixes. The most important feature for 5.8 is that Scintilla, the open source text editor component that Notepad++ uses, was upgraded to the most recent release (2.21).
There are also two new line wrapping methods added, enhanced macro capabilities, and many other incremental improvements. If you use Notepad++, now would be a good time to kick the tires on this new release.

It appears that they still haven't added an option to "Launch with Opera". I know that you can add it yourself manually, but it would be nice if it came with it considering that you have the option for just about every other major browser (IE, Firefox, Chrome and Safari).

Opera uses Webkit and the same stuff that safari uses... if it runs well in safari, chances are it will run basically the same in opera.

I'm not sure what your basing that on, but Opera uses Presto which I'm pretty sure is their own layout engine.

Yes, but there's your problem, they have the option for every MAJOR browser :P
