Good { morning, afternoon, evening },
The announcement of a pre-release version on the list may come
as a surprise to some of you. :-) When preparing maintenance
updates (which primarily consist of bug fixes, with few to no
new features), we're going to post notification of the new
versions to this list, so that anyone who's interested can take
the new build for a spin.
Note that these are _pre-release_ versions. The intent is to fix
bugs and address areas of improvement based on what our
customers have reported. However, since the software is at this
point not fully tested, there _may_ be bugs and regressions. If
this prospect makes you nervous, then sticking with the public
release versions is your best course of action. Nobody will be
offended if you choose to do so; you're under no obligation to
install and use anything but a public release. :-)
Following is a summary of the changes in the software since the
last public release. The change notes are organized into
additions, changes, and fixes, and are annotated where
appropriate with case numbers. So if you recognize a number
corresponding to a support case that was opened for you, you can
now verify that it's been fixed correctly.
One final note: If you run into a bug in a pre-release version,
PLEASE DO NOT REPORT THE BUG TO THE LIST. This includes asking
about whether others have seen the same problem. Instead, please
send a bug report to <[email protected]> and we will deal
with it there. This will help us keep the list discussion on
topic and productive for all list members.

Fixes
-----
- Fixed bug in which sentences preceded by line breaks didn't respond
to the Capitalize Sentences option to Change Case...
- [180549] Fixed bug in which floating plug-ins (such as TextSoap)
didn't get xfBBEditIsQuitting when the application was quit while
their window was visible.
- [181070] Fixed a bug in which new project items couldn't be created
through the scripting interface unless their properties contained an
explicit `«class pexp»` key and value.
- [180502, 181157] Fixed bug in which the "Save as Stationery" option
in the Save panel didn't set the "Stationery Pad" bit for the saved
file when it should have.
- [180014, 180759] When doing a safe-save, the system does not
attempt to preserve the ownership or permissions of the file being
saved; this resulted in the ownership/permissions being reset to the
umask defaults. This is not generally a problem for user-created and
-managed content, but did occasionally get in the way. BBEdit now
attempts to preserve permissions, but it cannot preserve ownership.
If this continues to pose a problem in actual usage, disable
safe-saves with the following expert preference:
`defaults write com.barebones.bbedit Filing:SafeSavesDisabled -bool YES`
Note that we do **not** recommend disabling safe-saves in general; only
if you have a problem caused by the change of ownership when saving a
document.
- [181207] Fixed bug in which saving a text document would cause it
to be de-selected in the Multi-File Search window's sources list; in
cases where the document did not get de-selected, the source list's
reference to it was nonetheless invalid and in certain situations
would cause an error to be reported when trying to search that
document.
- [181067, 181086] Fixed bug in which the "Live Search" menu command
was enabled for shell worksheet windows, but didn't actually do
anything.
- [180474, 180898] Fixed bug in which the documentShouldClose
attachment point was called more than once when it shouldn't have
been (and its result was ignored, so if the script returned "false" the
document would close anyway).
- [179945] Fixed bug in which "Find Definition" and the contextual
menu would show the pseudo-definitions of symbols in completion data
files (which were intended only for completion and coloring).
- [180171] Fixed crash which would occur when inserting a clipping
which used the #BASENAME# placeholder.
- [180270] Restored the pre-9.5 behavior for Capitalize Sentences and
Capitalize Lines, by lowercasing the string before applying the
Sentence/Line transform.
- Fixed bug in which changes to some of the HTML markup preferences
didn't take effect immediately when they were made, and instead
required a quit/ relaunch cycle. [180762]
- [180254] Fixed bug in which prefixed Emacs commands (usually using
Escape) didn't work correctly.
- [180767] Fixed bug in which disk browser windows didn't open to the
correct location when restoring application state.
- [181042] Fixed bug in which leading digits would be clipped from
printed line numbers when printing a selection range from a
sufficiently large document.

Someday I'll look back on all this and laugh... until they sedate me.
