How can I use that existing .xml file? I can go into the User Define dialog box, but it doesn't give me a choice to load from an xml file or anything like that...I'm obviously missing something important!
1) Browse to your Notepad++ install folder %APPDATA%\Notepad++\
2) Create a file named "userDefineLang.xml"
3) Open in a text editor (might as well use Notepad++ right!!)
4) Copy Sparrows file contents and paste into the userDefineLang.xml file. Sace and close
5) Close and reopen Notepad++, under the language folder you should now have an "Easyuo" option

Modified step one, this is what I had to do in order to get EUO language to work

Maybe you all can help me with this question: Notepad++ is formatting my UO journal terribly. I'm used to the fact that the UO client will save all the text with a space character in between each letter (ie: Y O U  S E E : b l a h)
The problem is that apparently this is a null char, and N++ displays a little black graphic for each null char making my saved journals impossible to read. After much googling to no avail, I turn to you, my new scriptuo friends to see If you can helpe
I would select the NULL character, then select Search\Replace - the NULL character should be in the "Find What" field, then make sure the "With What" field is blank and select Replace All.

Ah right, my instructions were for XP not Windows 7 so that makes sense, I'll add a line to the original post!

How would you rate N++ in comparison to SCiTE?
For Easyuo, i bymyself prefer Scriptuo for Development. Scite\N++ or Ultraedit are in my oppinion the same. I bymyself using "E" as Texteditor.
Its not Opensource\Freeware but you can combine it with running Compiler to execute java etc. IT supports alot of Languange, you have an overview Directory for your Projects. For development not bad. Would N++ wozuld have the options to manage different projects without needet to load all again , N++ or Scite would work as well:)

Just updating you on my solution.  What you suggested was the first thing I tried, and it didn't work due to being unable to paste a null character.  But after your suggestion, I thought I'd try finding the escape char for null and doing a search/replace for that worked.
The problem now is that all of my characters dump in to the same journal file, so I have an enormous file filled with Null chars intermixed with text.
I just highlighted probably 1/20th of the file and did a replace as I described above and it took almost 8 minutes to complete and replaced 1.5 million null chars lol
So, I need to know how to make it not display nulls (also, if anyone knows how to change the filename the client saves to, I would be extremely grateful, that way I can seperate my chars journals and not have all of them dump to the same JOURNAL.TXT file)

Sorry to hijack your thread, 12TimeOver, last time I post a request here I promise!  So I just finally finished replacing all null chars, there were 19 MILLION of them and it took my quad core PC about 25 minutes to replace them all.
So if anyone knows how to turn off the display null char option, that would really be optimal.

I never got around to adding this to my notepad++; I need to get off my butt.  Too busy drowning classic computers.  They don't swim well.

When I do *nix, I'm old school.  "vi" is ingrained in my DNA from when I was just a pupae.
