Good { morning, afternoon, evening },
We're working on an update to BBEdit 10.5 to address a few
recently reported issues.
Note that this is a _pre-release_ version. 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
previous build. 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. Please take the time to review the
changes before using the new build -- it'll be worth your time.
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
-----
* [258479, 263832] Fixed internal exception which would occur when
doing a "Check {Document, Folder} Links" and a link with no file
name was encountered; this would lead to a stuck progress dialog
which would crash when clicking the "Cancel" button, and other
misbehaviors.
* [262959] Fixed bug in which certain operations which involved
placing text on the Clipboard would fail with a -102 error if
done immediately after rebooting.
* [264358] When scanning HTML documents for folds, empty XML tags
will no longer throw off the calculation (even if the
document is
not using XML/XHTML).
* [264453] Fixed crash which could happen when preparing data for
export to the Services interface.
* [264498] Re-enabled garbage collection for the Automator
actions, because although GC is deprecated and we're all supposed
to be using ARC instead, Automator (a) requires that actions
still *allow* GC (`GCC_ENABLE_OBJC_GC = supported`), and (2)
throws a hissy fit when they don't.
* [264443] Fixed bug in which the horizontal scrollbar calibration
would be incorrect in situations where multiple lines had the
maximum number of characters (measured over the document) but
different numbers of tabs.
* [253694] Fixed cosmetics of the toolbar in { results, disk }
browser windows when the navigation bar was turned off.
* [264362] Fixed bug in which changes to the "Text Status Bar"
preferences would affect only the active text view.
* [250117] Fixed bug in which dragged rectangular selections would
include text from outside the selected ranges in cases
where the
selection did not begin at the start of the selected line(s).
* [264723] Fixed bug in which the wrong menu item was selected
when doing a Save As and the document's encoding was
Western (Mac
OS Roman).
* [209307] The "Open Text Documents" section of the popup
menus in
the Find Differences dialog is now sorted by name, rather
than by
Z order. This makes it easier to cope with large numbers of open
documents.
* Fixed bug in which page-guide-colored turds would appear in the
scrollbar when changing the selection in windows that were
narrower than the page guide width by less than the width
of the
sidebar.
* [251831] Fixed incorrect default name in the save panel when
using "Save As" on a document whose name begins with a period.
* [179076] Added support for using the scroll wheel while making
or dragging text selections.
* [264360] Fixed bug in which the FTP browser would get confused
and/or crash in situations where changing directories or
refreshing the listing would result in the number of items
shrinking.
* [214719 et al] Fixed crash which would occur in some situations
as the result of a file name change or other external file system
changes.
* [259874] Fixed bug in which the Save panel wasn't made to point
at the directory most suitable for saving a document. This might
also manifest as the Open panel not opening on the
directory that
one might expect.
* [181209, et al] Fixed crash which could occur when using "Move
to Trash" in a project list with multiple selected items.
* [264952] Fixed bug in which PHP coloring would go wrong in cases
where a variable was followed immediately by a quote character.
* [265423] `.DS_Store` files and other Finder administrivia are
now hidden from file listings in projects and disk
browsers, even
when "[Show] Everything" is turned on.
* [265366] Made a change to maybe prevent jumbo previews from
appearing in the Counterparts menu.
* [265365] Made a change to the low-level SGML parser, so that
double quotes inside of processing instructions `<?...?>` are
expected to be balanced, and from that, prevent `?>` inside of
double quotes from prematurely ending the PI. This will ensure
that (for example) PHP code is correctly scanned for functions
and syntax coloring when it uses double-quoted strings that
contain `?>`.
* [264483] Fixed bug in which spell-checking ranges would creep
while editing in certain situations.
* [240628, 255646] Fixed bug which would lead to multiple
synthetic mouse events being lost (e.g. multi-click button
programming using USB Overdrive or other mouse software),
as well
as some other unpredictable input event behaviors.
* [259023] Fixed bug in which the Live Search box was initially
unresponsive when the `Editor_AlwaysOpenQuickFind` expert
preference was turned on.
* [265445] Made a change to prevent the annoying system alert when
trying to save a text document that doesn't use one of the
state-approved filename extensions.
* [252288] Fixed crash which would occur when insufficient memory
was available to compare two very large files.
* [240230] Fixed bug in which the Setup window bookmark editor
would allow you to enter a bookmark without a server name, and
then crash when trying to save it.
* [265384] `shell path` and `working directory` are actually
properties of the `shell document` class, *not* the `shell
window` class. The scripting dictionary has been updated to
reflect this.
* [265366] Fixed bug in which the Counterparts menu would show
gigantic previews from Photoshop documents instead of scaling
them down to 16px for appropriate menu display.
