Good afternoon folks,
We're currently working on another maintenance update to BBEdit
13 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/13.0.3_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 13.0.2 public release:

* EVIDENTLY THE CHOCK LOCK IS TO AWESOME FOR SOME OF YOU TO HANDLE
BUT THATS OK THE FLESHY PALM WILL RETURN PS WE STILL LOVE YOU
CRAIG NO NOT HIM THE OTHER ONE
Fixes
-----
* [378299] Fixed bug in which changes made to the search and/or
replace pattern fields in the Pattern Playground by means
of the
menu buttons (saved patterns, history, cheat sheet) weren't
undoable.
* [378291] Fixed bug in which refreshing the results of a Git
"Show Working Copy" operation didn't update the results
list when
there were changes.
* [377787] Fixed a bug in which color schemes which used the
system text highlight color (such as BBEdit Light or BBEdit
Classic, or any other scheme in which "Use custom highlight
colors" was turned off) would use the wrong color when the system
was in Dark Mode.
* [378278, 378409] Fixed a bug in which legacy color settings
would create a situation in which the color scheme
selection was
reset to a newly created "Custom Settings" color scheme
each time
the application started up.
* [378445] Made a change so that errors invoking `ctags` or
`readtags` don't surface while using the completion interface.
(This stifles the `100086` error which will occur on
Catalina if
your available `ctags` is a 32-bit binary.)
* [378452] Worked around a bug in the OS (FB7416680) in which the
save panel would override an existing filename extension
with its
own notion of what the extension should be.
* [378511] Fixed a crash which would occur if `/usr/bin/diff`
failed to run. ("This should never happen.")
* [367251, 378571] Fixed bug in which quitting the application
with a Zip/tar archive browser open would reopen a disk browser
window viewing the top level of your computer, rather than the
archive that it had been browsing.
* [374316] Worked around a system windowing behavior which would
cause the following unexpected behavior: when starting the
application in which the saved state specified a window in full
screen mode, if the application was started by opening a document
that wasn't previously open in that window, the document being
opened (and any other such additional documents) would open into
a separate window.
* [378577, 378654] Made changes to improve performance at startup
when doing autosave recovery for a very large quantity of unsaved
documents (think: thousands).
* [378634] Fixed a bug in which authenticated saves would fail in
cases where the directory requiring privilege escalation
was not
on the startup disk.
* [378775] Fixed bug in which deleting a file or folder filter
that was in use by an open project, disk browser, or the
Multi-File Search window would fail to update each window's
settings and behavior.
* [378735] Fixed a bug in which entering "`~`" (or a path
beginning with "`~`") in the directory path would report an error
when connecting to an SFTP server.
* [378881] Fixed a bug in which Pattern Playground windows didn't
remember useful things (search pattern, replace pattern, case
sensitive setting, and scratch contents) when quitting and
relaunching the application.
* [378850, 378979] The HTML5 syntax checker no longer reports an
error for `crossorigin` and `integrity` attributes in
`link` and
`script` elements.
* [378039] Made a change to allow the `property` attribute to
appear in `meta` elements, as long as the attribute's value
begins with `og:`.
* Made a change to how the FTP browser view calculates the text
for the "Kind" column, so that a more useful document kind is
displayed in cases where something more generic was displayed
before.
* Quieted console noise when ingesting current format color
schemes.
* Changed the legacy color preference conversion so that it sets
the converted color scheme as the active scheme only for the
appearance in which it makes sense, rather that applying the
scheme setting to both light and dark appearances.
* [379081] Fixed bug in which creating a new file in a closed
project folder would cause folder aliases to unrelated locations
to twist open (as well as the project folder in which the new
file had been created).
* [376172] Fixed a bug in which a crash of the AppleScript runner
would leave the application in a state where important menu
commands (like Quit) were disabled or didn't do anything.
* Fixed a bug in which certain scripting verbs which implicitly
targeted the active window (`cut`, `copy`, `paste`, `undo`,
`clear undo history`, `insert clipping`) would fail when the
application was in the background. (Reminder: you generally
should not use these because of their implicit targeting;
and in
the case of the `cut`/`copy`/`paste` commands, they are
inherently unpredictable with respect to the contents of the
Clipboard.)
* [376002] Fixed layout bug in the "Commands" window in which long
items would get (invisibly) wrapped to the next line,
rather than
truncated with an ellipsis.
* [378604] Fixed bug in which the fields in the "Replace All" text
factory action sheet used the wrong font.
* [379352] Fixed a bug in which an instaproject would get confused
if the top-level folder from which it got created was moved or
renamed. (The change won't be noticed right away; but eventually
it will.)
* [379356] Fixed a bug in which saved markers weren't loaded for
files opened via the built-in FTP/SFTP support.
* [375868] Made a change so that only the first click of a
multi-click sequence opens the menu that's attached to a popup
action button (such as the Cheat Sheet or Saved Patterns buttons
in the Find window or Pattern Playground). This fixes a bug in
which rapid clicking on different buttons would sometimes open
the wrong menu.
* [373542] Fixed a bug in which C++ "raw" strings which contained
a double quote would confuse the syntax coloring.
* [377105] Fixed bug in the Unix shell script scanner in which the
next character after a "`<`" would be ignored if the "`<`" didn't
start a heredoc. This sometimes caused problems if the character
after the "`<`" was something relevant to syntax coloring,
like a
double quote.
* [376683] Fixed a layout bug and a drawing glitch in the
tool/control bar of Preview in BBEdit windows.
* [376087] The Find window now pays attention to the "Selected
text only" option when calculating live search results. If there
is no selection, or if there is a rectangular selection, the
search will be done over the entire document, as before.
