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/13.5.7_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 13.5.6 public release:

============================================================================

version 13.5.7 (415123) (2021-06-08)

Additions
---------

*       (none in this build)

Changes
-------

*       (none in this build)

Fixes
-----

*       [375075, 417164, 421242] Made changes to work around a weird
        intersection of font metrics and floating-point math which would
        sometimes cause printed text to fail to indent after the first
        tab.

*       Fixed bug in which changing a document-specific print setting in
        the print panel would fail to take effect immediately, in
        situations where the setting was being changed to match the
        global preference.

*       [424333] Made a change so that the Open Recent submenu doesn't
        try to repopulate itself in response to a simple keyboard
        equivalent match (since the menu itself doesn't have any keyboard
        assignments possible). This will help when there are a large
        number of recent items stored on slow remote file servers.

*       Fixed bug in which `Esc` didn't work to dismiss sheets in
        certain situations when "Enable meta sequences" was turned on in
        the Keyboard preferences.

*       Fixed a case in which closing a results or Disk Browser window
        with an unsaved document would inappropriately prompt to save
        changes to the document in cases where the document was open in
        (at least) one other window.

*       [421517] Made a change so that file changes in `node_modules` or
        directories hidden by `.gitignore` no longer invalidate the Open
        File by Name window cache.

*       [421722] Fixed a typo in the "hex digit" character class example
        in the Grep cheat sheet.

*       [423305] Fixed crash which could occur when trying to dismiss
        the Multi-File Search window (via Esc or Cmd-W) immediately after
        opening it.

*       [423679] Fixed hang which would occur when using Cmd-left-arrow
        (and probably other cursor movements) more than 2GB into a file.

*       [424009] Added some armor plating to prevent an reported
        event-handling crash that we can't reproduce.

*       [303051/303246, 424210] Updated the HTML5 syntax tables to allow
        attributes and values that were previously reported as errors.

*       The HTML5 syntax check will no longer complain about the `value`
        attribute missing a value in the `input` element.

*       [419897, 420437, 421052, 421723] Fixed crash which would occur when
        clicking in the text of a file being displayed in a Differences
        window, when the underlying file had been deleted *and* the file
        had been in /tmp on macOS 10.15 and later.

*       Fixed a few memory leaks.
