Notepadqq is a free, open source, and Notepad++-like text editor for the Linux desktop. It’s written in C++ and works on Qt5.
Notepadqq helps developers by providing all you can expect from a general purpose text editor, such as syntax highlighting for more than 100 different languages, code folding, color schemes, file monitoring, multiple selection and much more.
You can search text using the power of regular expressions. You can organize documents side by side. You can use real-time highlighting to find near identifiers in no time.
Install Notepadqq in Ubuntu:
Notepadqq team provides an official PPA repository for all current Ubuntu releases (e.g., Ubuntu 14.04, Ubuntu 15.04, Ubuntu 14.10) and their derivatives such as Linux Mint 17, Elementary OS Freya.
1. To add the PPA, open terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T) and run:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:notepadqq-team/notepadqq
2. After that, refresh system package cache and install the editor via Synaptic Package Manager:
or by running below commands one by one:
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install notepadqq
And you can receive future updates of this editor just as part of system updates via Software Updater.

Add the repository my executing this
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:notepadqq-team/notepadqq

this one helped :)
THANKS, HELPED
Thanks Suresh,, It is helpful
how to uninstall the application?
Try doing:
sudo apt-get remove notepadqq
When I do “sudo apt-get update”, I get the following:
“Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.”
May be you lost connectivity for a while ?
That was helpful. I was missing Notepad++ but Notepadqq is definitely a replacing app for Notepad++ in Ubuntu. Thanks a lot :)
Is any more work being done on this?
If so, the feature I would most urgently request is to enable code-folding around #if{,def,ndef,…etc} #else/#elif and #endif, just as it is available in Notepad++
Thank you.
