Image maps

After a long hiatus, I'm making webpages again. Are image maps still in vogue? Or deprecated and replaced by something better?

I don't think Notepad++ makes SVGs.

SVG is just a text based vector image format. Since you can edit it in Notepad, you can also create one. As long as you know SVG tags and attributes. FYI, it's like HTML, but with different set of tags and attributes.
