How to delete the current line and add a new line in Notepad++?
These two operations are very common but I can't find any key setting how to do them in Notepad++. Can any plugin do this job?
Best Answer
Ctrl + L cuts the current line
and
Ctrl + Shift + L removes the current line.
You can see and change hotkeys in Settings > Shortcut Mapper... > Scintilla Commands. Look for SCI_LINEDELETE and SCI_LINECUT.
The version of my Notepad++ is 6.1.1.
Ctrl + L will cut the line.
Ctrl + Shift + L will delete the line (i.e. not copying it to clipboard).

Please note this works in more applications than just Notepad++!
Question #1 Ctrl + L or Ctrl + Alt + L as already answered
Question #2 Enter, will add a new empty line and align the cursor to previous
if you want to delete line you can use find replace feature with extended option in it like
- Click Ctrl+F and then go to replace tab
- Check the extended option in it
- in find type anything
- in replace you can type '\n'(to insert blank line) '\t' (to delete blank line)
