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/12.6.4_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 pre-release build:

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

version 12.6.4 (412075) (2019-04-24)

Fixes
-----

*   Made a change to prevent the "x" widgets in sidebars from
    getting stuck in the "hover" state, in situations where the mouse
    was rapidly moved from the widget to some other part of the
    window (other than the sidebar).

*   [369859] Fixed a bug in which items dragged from a disk
browser's sidebar would appear to "slide" from the sidebar's top
    left corner at the beginning of the drag.

*   [369412] Made a change so that legacy filters which included a
    leading period for "file name extension" terms will (once again)
    correctly match the file name extension.

*   [369999] Fixed bug in which command-line tool installation would
fail in cases where the tools had previously been installed. This
    would typically happen after moving the application.

*   Fixed a bug in the JavaScript color scanner in which it would
    fail to recognize delimited strings which were immediately
preceded by an identifier without any intervening whitespace or
    other punctuation.
