Notepad++

I was starting to write macros and I already had Notepad++ installed but the instructions in the MQ2 Wiki do not work...

If I make the changes suggested it starts making Notepad++ crash. I'm using the latest version of Notepad++ if that is part of the problem.

type .mac in the box then click the arrow until it shows up in registerd ext in the right side box

Thanks, apparently I was missing the steps that associated the filetype to it. Working perfectly now

There is a small blurb about associating the .mac extension but it is easy to miss. I added the info above to the mq2 wiki for clarity.
