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-414035.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.

* [NFR] [390937] Fixed bug in which resources used by Preview
in BBEdit
windows were not released when closing the window.
* [NFR] [391055] Fixed bug in the Unix shell script coloring in
which a single greater-than followed by a string (or some other
colorable construct) would generate incorrect coloring.
* [390660] Search results windows created by a single-file "Find
All" get a refresh button. This will repeat the search
using the
same string and options as the original, **including** "Selected
Text Only".
* Fixed bug in which an unhelpful error was reported in conditions
where trying to connect to a remote SFTP server failed because
the remote account had a shell configuration or login script
which echoed something to standard output.
* Made a change to improve error reporting during failed SFTP
connections when the requested host refuses the connection, or
when the host name lookup fails.
* [390956] Fixed bug in which a "`//`" in the middle of a Swift
block comment would confuse the parser and lead to unexpected
coloring and/or function scanning behavior.
* Fixed bug in which errors reported during find and replace
operations would sometimes report an incorrect error number.

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.
