Good { morning, afternoon, evening },
We're working on an update to BBEdit 12.0 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. :-)
Following is a summary of changes since the most recent
pre-release build. Complete change notes for all of the
pre-release builds in this cycle are available here: <https://s3.amazonaws.com/BBSW-download/12.0.2_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 <supp...@barebones.com> and we will deal
with it there. This will help us keep the list discussion on
topic and productive for all list members.

Fixes
-----
* [346555, 346932] Fixed bug in which menu items indicated by
searching for them using the Help search box would be
disabled in
situations where they shouldn't have been.
* [347048, 347062] Fixed bug in which the "Update" scripting event
would return an error.
* [347058] BBEdit now writes out temporary files for live preview
windows with `644` permissions, so that other processes
(such as
Apache) can read the file if necessary.
* [347076] Fixed a bug in which a request from the command line
(or elsewhere) to open an sftp URL without a username (or
password) would return a -50 error.
* [346662, 347057] BBEdit will (once again) warn about malformed
UTF-8 files rather than simply refusing to open them.
* [347080, 347128, 347147, 347150] Fixed a collection of bugs that
conspired to slow down SFTP operations, particularly the initial
connection to the remote server.
* [347161, 347166] Fixed bug in which the "Allow the Escape
key to
trigger text completion" preference was ignored, and the
`Esc` key
did not work to trigger completions.
* [347191] Rewrote ancestor discovery code (used for finding
`.git`, `.svn`, and such like) to improve performance as
well as
behavior when used for files that aren't on the boot volume.
* [347125] Fixed crash which could occur when certain changes were
made in the Font panel while adjusting a font preference.
* [346674] Fixed bug in which the "New Text Window" and "All
Running Browsers" commands were left off the "Preview In" submenu
on the Markup menu.
* Fixed bug in which the window resulting from a Preview/New Text
Window operation didn't have the desired title.
* Fixed bug in which certain errors reported during attempts to
automatically back a file up were not reported correctly.
* [347177] Fixed bug in which contextual-menu commands in the
Currently Open Documents list of a project sidebar would be
targeted to the Project list instead.
* [346509] Made a change to the "Rearrange Columns" panel so that
it can be expanded horizontally to accommodate long column header
names.
* Fixed a bug in which preview temp files generated for live
previews didn't have the appropriate extended attributes which
allowed them to be excluded from various site operations.
* [346590] Fixed bug in which *no* completion sources were allowed
for plain-text languages (Text File, CSV, TSV), which was not
necessarily a useful outcome.
* [347295] Fixed crash when trying to remove customized settings
for a specific language (in the Languages settings).
* Fixed layout bugs in the completion panel with certain font/size
combinations.
* Made `ctl-n` and `ctl-p` functional again in the completion
panel.
* Fixed crash which would occur when quitting the application
while the completion panel was open.
* Fixed bug in which window activation changes were mismanaged by
the application. Although there weren't any reported bugs
attributable to this, it was wrong and needed to be fixed.
* [345356] Fixed bug in which zooming (option-click on the green
button, or keyboard equivalent for the Zoom command) a window
would not maximize it to the correct height.
