Edit default text for a file extension in Notepad++

Question

Is it possible to make Notepad++ use a default set of text when I change the language to say php or perl? Basically I am lazy and say for perl I don't have to have to write out

#/usr/bin/perl

everytime or the tags in php.

Edit: I am avoiding the use of macros.

Answer 1

Notepad++ does not know what language you are intending to use when you open a new document. You could specify a template that Notepad++ opens up from a shortcut something like

notepad++ -lperl -ro /path/to/template

You might also consider the snippets plugin to simplify the typing.
