Good afternoon,
We're currently working on a maintenance update to BBEdit 13.1
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/13.1.2_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:

Fixes

* [NFR] Added additional armorplating to guard against SFTP stalls
when the remote side unexpectedly closes the connection.
* Fixed a crash in the crash reporter which would occur if you
denied it access to Contacts when prompted.
* [394405] Fixed bug in which in-application notifications weren't
presented.
* BBEdit will now report a specific error if you try to connect
via SFTP and your network connection is down or disconnected
(based on an "unknown error: 0" being reported by SSH).
* [394570] Fixed bug in which manually reloading a live preview
window didn't allow JavaScript alerts to present.
* Fixed a bug in which JavaScript string prompt dialog boxes were
not run as sheets on the parent window, as had been intended.
* Made a change so that "`auto`" and "`none`" are usable as
synonyms for "`(automatic)`" and "`(none)`" for language
names in
the AppleScript interface and on the command line (for the `-m`
flag to `bbedit`).
* Made a change to limit the quantity of text that BBEdit provides
to language modules for guessing. This improves performance when
opening very large files with unmapped file name extensions.
* Made a change to significantly improve performance when opening
very large files with few (or no) line breaks.
