Good morning folks,

We're currently working on a feature update to BBEdit 12, which includes a number of new features, as well as fixes for previously 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/notes-12.6.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.

============================================================================

version 12.6 (412029)   (2019-02-14)

*   This version of BBEdit requires macOS 10.12.6 or later. It will
    not run on previous versions of macOS or Mac OS X.

Additions
---------

o   (none in this build)

Changes
-------

Fixes
-----

*   [NFR] [367278] Fixed regression in which keyboard focus for the
    Markup Builder panel would be on the attribute name combo box,
    rather than in the attribute value field, when manually invoking
    for a specific tag (such as Anchor).

*   [367258] Fixed bug in which clicking on an internal link in an
    unsaved or untitled HTML document that was being live previewed
    would report an error trying to open an `applewebdata:` URL.

*   [367279] If BBEdit can't send save or close notifications
    because you previously denied it permission to send Apple Events
    to the application which needs them (usually a file transfer
client from which you used "Edit in BBEdit"), you'll now get an alert to this effect; the help button in the alert takes you to
    [a page which explains how to fix 
things](https://www.barebones.com/support/bbedit/ODBAutomationError.html).

*   [366959, 367214] Fixed bug in which "Sort Lines" would sometimes
    inexplicably stall for a second or more in the middle of the
    sorting process.

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,

R.

Someday I'll look back on all this and laugh... until they sedate me.
