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 last pre-release 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.

Change notes for the previous pre-release build are available here: <https://groups.google.com/d/msg/bbedit/7MsCXNSdbdI/c2ET4z3zfbIJ>.

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
-----

*   File icons in disk browsers are now colored appropriately when
    the file/folder has a label (according to the file system
    metadata). This also includes single-tag items when running on
    10.9.

* [279296] Fixed crash which would occur when trying to compute a
    default file name extension and the Languages preferences
    contained one (or more) custom extension mappings with no
    extension.

*   Fixed crash which would occur when trying to apply an Automator
    workflow as a text filter, caused by Automator returning
    something other than what it used to.

*   [279393] There's a new expert pref:

`defaults write com.barebones.bbedit ShowFullPathsInSearchResults -bool YES`

It's off by default, but turning it on will cause the application to
    display the full (home-relative) path for files listed in search
    results windows.

*   If [Dash](http://kapeli.com/dash) is installed, BBEdit will now
    use it for "Find in Reference", in preference to any predefined
or custom reference lookup URLs. This can be controlled via an expert
    preference, on a per-language basis if desired:

`defaults write com.barebones.bbedit UseDashForReferenceLookups -bool NO`
    `# turn off Dash support entirely`

`defaults write com.barebones.bbedit UseDashForReferenceLookups_Ruby -bool NO`
    `#turn off Dash support only for Ruby`

You could, if you wanted, turn off Dash support by default and then enable
    it for specific languages, e.g.

`defaults write com.barebones.bbedit UseDashForReferenceLookups -bool NO`
    `# turn off Dash support entirely`

`defaults write com.barebones.bbedit UseDashForReferenceLookups_C++ -bool YES`
    `#turn on Dash support only for C++`

*   Added a table of contents and internal jump points to the Expert
    Preferences help.
