Editor with caching like Notepad++ in windows

Question

Is there an editor for linux which can cache files in it? Every time I started the Notepad++ on windows, it brought all files which I've left open (even unsaved files).

Unfortunately the Notepadqq doesn't brings up this function. Does anybody have a recommendation?

Don't know about a native application but Notepadd++ works pretty decent with PlayOnLinux. //EDIT: SublimeText can do this but it's not free, though you can use the trial version for as long as you want. — Sledge Hammer, Jul 07 '16 at 07:46
Gedit has also a plugin to save the session. See this thread http://askubuntu.com/questions/51944/remember-what-files-are-opened-in-a-session-of-gedit — domih, Jul 07 '16 at 09:44

Ubuntu have plenty of editor. Here are two options:

You can use Gedit with plugin (gedit-restore-tabs).
Atom is a very powerful editor with a tons of plugins, save-session or remember-session will does the trick.

Sublime Text also does this by default. – user13161 Sep 13 '17 at 16:55

Notapadqq has caching as default. Is a pretty good alternative that does most of the things that Notepad++ does. Here is a the github repo.

I would suggest Atom Editor

https://atom.io/

if anything is missing, most likely you can find additional packages that will do what you want!

I'm not sure, but Geany (sudo apt-get install geany) restores previous files and tabs from last session.

Also you can install Notepad++ on wine if you like it.
