Good morning folks,

We're currently working on another maintenance update to BBEdit 12 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. :-)

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

  <https://s3.amazonaws.com/BBSW-download/12.1.5_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.

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.

Here is the list of changes made since the previous public release:

Fixes
-----

*   [356182] Fixed bug in which the "Insert Clipping" panel would
    crash when double-clicking in the blank space of the list.

*   [356203] Fixed bug in which the Setext (yes, Setext) language
    module didn't properly generate function menu entries or folds
    for sections.

*   [354050] Fixed a bug which would sometimes cause the progress
panel to be left behind after connecting to an FTP server, if it
    took long enough.

*   [354050] Fixed bug in which overlapping progress boxes could
    appear when connecting to an FTP/SFTP server, either in the
    FTP/SFTP browser window or in the "Save to FTP/SFTP Server"
    panel.

*   [356214] Fixed bug in which quitting the application would clear
    any text that had been placed on the Clipboard.

*   [345567, 356249] Fixed bug in which Perl functions with
    parameterized attributes would not appear in the function menu.

*   [355320] If the `AllowSingleClickLineSelection` expert
    preference is turned _off_, clicking in the "dead space" between
    the left side of a line and the gutter (or line bar, if the
    gutter is hidden) or left edge of the window (if the gutter and
    line bar are hidden) will now place the insertion point at the
    beginning of the indicated line, rather than doing nothing.

*   [356394, 356406] Fixed bug in which the completion panel would
    continue to operate after having explicitly accepted a completion
    that happened to be a prefix for one or more other completions.
    (This was most likely to happen with dictionary words.)

*   [356389] Fixed regression in which some forms of heredoc were
    not properly scanned by the Unix Shell Script (and shell
    worksheet) coloring mechanics.

*   [356159] Fixed various misbehaviors that would occur during
    Japanese (and other non-roman) text entry.
