Good afternoon folks,
We're currently working on a feature update to BBEdit 13, 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/13.1_Notes-414009.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.
============================================================================
Here is a list of changes since the previous pre-release version:
version 13.1 (414009) (2020-04-02)
Additions
---------
* [DOC] Added a command to the "Paste" submenu of the Edit menu:
"HTML". Some applications put a specific HTML data type on the
clipboard; you can use this command to paste it in to an editing
view as text.
If the HTML on the clipboard doesn't contain any line
breaks, BBEdit
will run the HTML through its "gentle hierarchical"
formatter before
insertion.
If you prefer to paste the HTML exactly as it appeared on
the clipboard,
this Terminal command will change the relevant expert preference:
`defaults write com.barebones.bbedit PrettyPrintPastedHTML
-bool NO`
As with all other menu commands, you can set (or change)
the keyboard
equivalent for this command using the "Menus & Shortcuts" preferences.

Fixes
-----
* [NFR] [386279] Fixed regression in which the summary text for
untitled documents didn't appear in the top level Window menu.
* [349911] Fixed a bug in which Ruby class migration declarations
would break code folding for the class.
* [386143] Made a change so that angle brackets can be
backslash-escaped in Markdown documents to hide them from the
syntax colorizer and function scanner.
* [386225] Added MacSpice to the list of applications to which
BBEdit is allowed to send Apple Events, to restore its
external-editor support to working order.
* [386200] Fixed a bug in which using "Open Selection" with an
absolute path selected would do unnecessary work, which could
take a very long time under certain conditions.
* [386222] Fixed drawing glitch which would occur in project
sidebars when changing the "Status bar item size" setting
in the
Appearance preferences.

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.
