Good afternoon folks,
We're working on an update to BBEdit 11 which will add some new
features and 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 changes since the most recent
pre-release (whose own notes are here: <https://groups.google.com/d/msg/bbedit/elMkF3BPa-Q/6g94RUi_AAAJ>).
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.
============================================================================
version 11.6 (3933) (2016-06-10)
Additions
---------
* Custom keyword files (those that live in `Application
Support/BBEdit/Custom Keywords`) can now use an Emacs mode line
to specify their language. This addresses the case in which you
want to supply keywords for a language that doesn't have any
filename extension mappings. For example. "`.php`" maps to "PHP
in HTML", which means that embedded PHP keywords need to be
in a
keywords file that maps to the "PHP" language. Such a
keyword file
would look like this:
<code>
-*- mode: php; -*-
keyword_one
keyword_two
...etc...
</code>
Emacs mode lines and blank lines in the keyword file will
be ignored.
* [322970] When an untitled document is active in a window, the
window's entry in the Window menu will be annotated with some
text derived from the beginning of the document's contents.
Changes
-------
* [DOC] Moved the "License" command further down the application
menu, and removed the ellipses from the "Preferences" and "Setup"
commands.
Fixes
-----
* [NFR] Fixed a bug in which new-logic path truncation was
inappropriately applied to selected text in a document, which
would run the application out of memory if the selected
text was
long enough and contained a lot of slashes.
* [NFR] Added some characters to the output of `bbedit -h` to
include offsets in line number specifiers.
* Fixed a bug in which the highlight color was incorrect after
selecting a color scheme in some circumstances.
