Good afternoon,
We're currently working on a maintenance update to BBEdit 13.5 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/13.5.5_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 version:
============================================================================

Fixes
-----
* Made a change so that compressed file names which have an
interposed numeric filename extension (e.g. "`system.log.0.gz`")
are now recognized as text files for purposes of file filtering
in the Open panel and other places, as long as the file name that
remains after stripping off the compression extension and numeric
extension is recognized as a text file name. (As a reminder,
files whose name extensions aren't known to BBEdit can be added
to the list in the Text Files preferences, or mapped to a
language in the Languages preferences, as appropriate.)

Enjoy,
