Notepad++ installed from any package manager was perfectly fine and safe.

And work bosses saw a news story on this and banned the app outright :( can anyone suggest a replacement that is not paid and has features useful for searching lots of large logs files quickly for keywords?

+1 for Kate. I think its ment to be an acronym for KDE Advanced text editor but its a linux program that feels very close to notepad++ and will handle large files with gusto

Awesome choice but one crucial detail is that commercial use requires a license.

I downloaded that one today. It will work for now but it’s missing a couple of n++ features I use.

Ive always had notepad++ crash on large files or xml’s with no newlines. I use sublime in those cases :)
That said, as a developer, notepad++ is a very often used tool haha

I regularly open CSVs in the range of 500MB to 2GB in notepad++ without any problem…

I’m only using Sublime Text and the Notepad that is included with Windows. Not sure exactly what you’re looking for.
