Notepad++ special string character highlighting
highlighting, notepad++, printf
Solution
If you don't mind editing some xml, I'm sure you could make the appropriate settings in `stylers.xml` where all syntax highlighting settings for Notepad++ are saved. It is usually located in `%APPDATA%\Notepad++\`
Here is the wiki:

Otherwise, you could try to find a theme online and import it with `settings->import->import theme`
Problem
In notepad++ if I have the code ``` printf("Hello, World\n"); ``` The whole string '"Hello, World\n"' is one color but in editors like vim '\n' is a different color signifying it's a special character. Is there to get this behavior in notepad++? It's an especially nice feature of vim to highlight some of the stranger printf syntax like '% 5.3s' or '%%'
