VirtualBox 4.2.6.82870

VirtualBox is a powerful tool that can be used create one or more virtual machines on a single computer. This can be used for testing different operating systems or various applications, which can be installed on them. Virtual Box Targeted at server, desktop and embedded use, it is now the only professional-quality virtualization solution that is also Open Source Software.


Some of the features of VirtualBox are:
Modularity. VirtualBox has an extremely modular design with well-defined internal programming interfaces and a client/server design. This makes it easy to control it from several interfaces at once: for example, you can start a virtual machine in a typical virtual machine GUI and then control that machine from the command line, or possibly remotely. VirtualBox also comes with a full Software Development Kit: even though it is Open Source Software, you don't have to hack the source to write a new interface for VirtualBox.

Virtual machine descriptions in XML. The configuration settings of virtual machines are stored entirely in XML and are independent of the local machines. Virtual machine definitions can therefore easily be ported to other computers.

Guest Additions for Windows, Linux and Solaris. VirtualBox has special software that can be installed inside Windows, Linux and Solaris virtual machines to improve performance and make integration much more seamless. Among the features provided by these Guest Additions are mouse pointer integration and arbitrary screen solutions (e.g. by resizing the guest window). There are also guest additions for OS/2 with somewhat reduced functionality.

Shared folders. Like many other virtualization solutions, for easy data exchange between hosts and guests, VirtualBox allows for declaring certain host directories as "shared folders", which can then be accessed from within virtual machines.

Notepad++ 6.1.6

While the Notepad tool bundled with Windows is fine for making quick text notes, for anything more than this it is somewhat lacking in features. There is always the option of using a word processor for creating more in depth documents, but sometimes a middle ground is needed - this is the gap that Notepad++ has been designed to fill.
The program has a small footprint and is quick to load, and while it has been designed as a replacement for Notepad,
it has a great deal more to offer. The tabbed interface makes it possible to work with multiple documents simultaneously without the need to open several instances of the program and simple touches such as line numbering and syntax highlighting make it ideal for programmers editing code.
Notepad++ can be used to record and playback macros, and sections of large documents can be bookmarked for easy access. The program recognising a range of different coding styles, from C++ and Java to HTML and Perl and multiple documents can be viewed at the same time for the purposes of comparison, or a document can be cloned ready for editing while retaining the original version.
This is a hugely versatile tool which will prove incredibly useful for any coder, but also operates well as a more powerful text editor.
Notepad++ 6.1.6 ships with these changes:
Fix (Walk around) Notepad++ hanging on CJK input with ANSI document while enabling word completion.
Enhance folding performance on large documents.
Check update without elevating to Administrator right.
Add update auto-detection for the environment vista/windows 7/Windows 8.
Fix bug: Doc switcher icon state not refreshed after '"save all" action.
Make Document map togglable via menu.
Enhance Find/Replace dialog result messages.
Fix a issue that "max number of recent files" cannot be set to 0.
Add font size 5, 6 and 7 in Style Configurator

Notepad++ is a free source code editor and Notepad replacement that supports several languages. Running in the MS Windows environment, its use is governed by GPL Licence.
Based on a powerful editing component Scintilla, Notepad++ is written in C++ and uses pure Win32 API and STL which ensures a higher execution speed and smaller program size. By optimizing as many routines as possible without losing user friendliness, Notepad++ is trying to reduce the world carbon dioxide emissions. When using less CPU power, the PC can throttle down and reduce power consumption, resulting in a greener environment.
