Good afternoon folks,

We're currently working on a feature update to BBEdit 12, which includes a number of new features, as well as fixes for recently reported issues.

Testing is currently underway, and we have a stable pre-release version ready for use.

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. :-)

Complete change notes to date for all the pre-release builds in this cycle are available here:

  <https://s3.amazonaws.com/BBSW-download/12.1_Notes.txt>

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.

Fixes
-----

* [351948] Fixed bug in which opening a document by dragging it to
    the "Currently Open Documents" section in the sidebar would cause
    certain internal bookkeeping to get out of whack, which in turn
could cause a crash in certain situations, usually when closing a
    document opened in this fashion while the Multi-File Search
    window is open.

*   [351996] Fixed bug in which "All Files" pre-filtering wasn't
    correctly applied to files inside of Zip archives encountered
    during multi-file search (or used as search targets).

*   Added default block-comment delimiters for SQL variants.

*   [352077] "Use Selection For Find" and "Use Selection for
    Replace" will now hex-escape any naked carriage returns (ASCII
13) that occur in the selected text, rather than escaping them to
    `\r` (which would not match).

*   [352085] Disabled the system's automatic test substitution
    behaviors by default, since they're either nonfunctional or
    inappropriate within BBEdit.

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.

The package can be downloaded from our web server:

Enjoy,
