Some practical tips

1. Auto-Complete keywords

This is a lot of recommended time will be mentioned, although I never open, Verilog keyword uttered also more than 100, commonly used about 20%, really want to learn words not to remember dozens of words, but really encountered some obscure and very long keyword, still very useful, so it is best to turn it off, Use the time to open or use the shortcut key (its initial shortcut and input Method shortcut key conflict). On: Set-up and preferences-backup and auto-complete-all inputs are automatically completed. Verilog also add keywords: install directory \notepad++\plugins\apis, the original is no Verilog XML document, but can be modified from the Vhdl.xml, the inside of the key words into Verilog can.

2. Column mode and column editing

Input a very headache is a bit of input a long string of similar statements, non-stop copy and paste, and then modify the row by line, how much feel inefficient, for notepad++, you can hold down the ALT key to call up the column mode, the mouse drag the cursor and change very long, at this time the input will be the same cursor in each line entered the same word While column editing (alt+c) can insert text and numbers, numbers can be incremented, unfortunately there is no decrement, and the column pattern combined is very practical.

3. Bookmarks

Clicking the left mouse button on the right of the number of lines will add a dot to the current line, and pressing the F2 cursor will return to the set bookmark, which can be set up and useful for editing longer code.
