change xilinx ise default text editor to notepad++

I want to add custom editor to Xilinx ISE project nevigator. How change xilinx ise default text editor to notepad++?

Solution

  • For the Windows version, in Xilinx ISE 14.7 under Edit > Preferences > ISE General > Editors, select the "Custom" editor and set the command line syntax to:

    notepad++ $1 -n$2

    Then make sure that Notepad++ is listed in your Path environment variable. It's not there by default. To add it, go to My Computer > Properties > Advanced System Settings > Environment Variables and find the Path variable under the system variables. Add the directory that contains Notepad++ to the end of the list. It's likely "C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++" if you used the default settings.
