Notepad++ (also called Notepad Plus Plus) is a free editor which can be downloaded from [[http://notepad-plus-plus.org/ notepad-plus-plus.org]]. It has some functionality that makes it preferable as a editor for creating TUFLOW control files. This functionality includes:
* Colour coding of TUFLOW files (syntax highlighting). '''Thanks to Edenvale Young putting together the syntax highlighting file.'''
* Ability to start a TUFLOW simulation using the currently open files as the .tcf input.
* Ability to highlight a filename and open the file directly. For example from a .tcf a a geometry control file (.tgc) can be opened without having to locate it in an explorer style menu.
A video tutorial on how to set up these features is presented here: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=407&v=rHEhScXer6E TUFLOW YouTube channel]]<br><br>
