An initial testing pre-release for Scintilla and SciTE 2.27 can now
be downloaded. I plan to release this version in 2 days if no problems
are discovered.

The change log is:

On recent GTK+ 2.x versions when using Cairo, bug fixed where
wrong colours were drawn.
SciTE on GTK+ slow performance in menu maintenance fixed. Bug #3315233.
Cocoa platform supports 64-bit builds and uses only non-deprecated
APIs. Asian Input Method Editors are supported. Autocompletion lists
and calltips implemented. Control identifier used in notifications.
On Cocoa, rectangular selection now uses Option/Alt key to be
compatible with Apple Human Interface Guidelines and other
applications. The Control key is reported with an SCMOD_META modifier
bit.
API added for setting and retrieving the identifier number used in
notifications.
SCI_SETEMPTYSELECTION added to set selection without scrolling or
redrawing more than needed. Feature #3314877.
Added new indicators. INDIC_DASH and INDIC_DOTS are variants of
underlines. INDIC_SQUIGGLELOW indicator added as shorter alternative
to INDIC_SQUIGGLE for small fonts. Bug #3314591
Margin line selection can be changed to select display lines
instead of document lines. Bug #3312763.

Shift+Enter in the Find or Replace strips or dialogs.

range. Bug #3313746.

large file. Bug #3311421.
On Windows, SciTE advanced search remembers the "Search only in
this style" setting. Bug #3313344.
