Good { morning, afternoon, evening },
The 10.5 public beta's rolling right along -- thanks to everyone
who's taken the time to try it out and let us know how it's
working, for better or for worse. :-)
A new build is available, with an assortment of fixes for things
that turned up in the previous beta release. (For more
information about the previous release, please see the post at
<https://groups.google.com/d/msg/bbedit/LK3uSs1yNoY/0nUiHUVZXesJ>.)
Most of these correspond to fixes and changes to work in
progress; but as always there are also fixes for bugs in what's
currently in general release.
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 the changes in the software since the
previous build. 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 -- there are a lot of them,
and 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 <sup...@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.

version 10.5 (3223) (10/31/2012)
*** The system requirements for BBEdit have changed with version 10.
Mac OS X 10.6 is now required (10.6.8 or later recommended).
*** BBEdit 10.5 contains extensive internal rework; the primary goal
is to achieve proper appearance on Macs with the high-resolution
"Retina" displays, but the opportunity was also taken to remove
unnecessary code, and to effect various cosmetic and usability
improvements. There will be some drawing glitches and
fit-and-finish issues; please report anything that you run into
that falls into that category (as well as any other
functional bugs
that you may encounter in new or changed features).
Additions
---------
* [204298] The "current process" indicator in shell worksheets now
has a spinny thing so that you know something's running,
and a
clicky thing if you want to stop the running thing
indicated by
the spinny thing.
- [208631] When running a shell script from the shebang menu,
additional arguments are passed along to the command, so things
like:
`#!/usr/bin/env python --version`
will return
`Python 2.7.3`
Changes
-------
* [DOC] [252935] The search logic in "Open Counterpart" has been
improved to cover cases that weren't previously served by strict
project-searching logic. Consider this arrangement of files and
folders:
project/
src/
foo.m
inc/
foo.h
When in either file, "Open Counterpart" will now search the siblings
of the file's parent for eligible counterparts. By default,
the folders
will only be searched if they match one of the following
names (including
wildcards): `inc*`, `source`, `src`, `*priv*`. If you wish
to add additional
qualifying names, you may do so by setting the `CounterpartSiblingSearchNames`
expert preference with a comma-delimited list of folder
name patterns:
`defaults write com.barebones.bbedit
CounterpartSiblingSearchNames -string "foo*, bar, *mumble*, wumpus"`
Any whitespace surrounding names is stripped.
- [210560] App state restoration has an indeterminate progress
dialog, hopefully hinting that "No, we're not hung; we're busy".
Fixes
-----
- [205676] Fixed a hang which could occur if a codeless language
module had a grep pattern that returned a 0-length match.
- [172700] Disable the Replace All command if "Selected text only"
is checked, and the target view has a rectangular selection.
- Disable all the Find buttons if the search string is empty.
- [173731] Clicks in the text view while the completion panel is
displayed both dismiss the completion, and move the insertion
point.
- [179938] Zip browsers' nodes are sorted alphabetically, not by
pack date.
- [193678] Changes to the File Filters are reflected immediately
in Project Windows.
- [193725] Shift Right only adds whitespace to lines that contain
non-whitespace characters.
- [197438] Changed case of and added a couple additional values
for PHP ENT* attribute completions.
- [200746] Fixed a bug which caused the functions popup (and
floater) to display callouts regardless of the preference setting.
- [201478] "Use Selection for Replace" with an empty selection
clears the replace string.
* [247858] Fixed case in which using "Replace" or "Replace & Find"
in the Find window would replace the entire contents of the
document with the replacement string, in specific cases involving
a zero-length Grep match and the document not having a selection
range.
* [213299] If a remembered window was full screen when quitting,
it is restored to that state when starting up.
- When restoring application state which includes a zip browser,
we open a zip browser instead of a disk browser to the parent
folder.
* [186636] When saving a new untitled document, we now make an
attempt to pick a reasonable default directory for the save
panel, when a disk browser or instaproject is immediately behind
the document's window.
- [208103] Auto-folds can be collapsed from either start or
end indicators.
- [210410] When saving a file with "Save a Copy" we attempt to
create the copy with same permissions as the original file.
* [NFR] Fixed a bug which prevented the toolbar's soft wrap menu
from displaying the actual character count being used.
* [NFR] Fixed bug in which "Open Selection" for a partial path did
not correctly locate and open the indicated file.
* [NFR] Fixed bug in which "simulated" button clicks (in response
to a key press) didn't properly unhighlight the button.
* [NFR] Quieted Quickdraw warnings which would occur when moving
focus into/out of the Live Search box.
- [NFR] [253061] Restored code which handled
file-suffix-to-clipping-set-suffix mappings.
* [NFR] [253189] Fixed drawing state of source list view in the
Multi-File Search window.
* [NFR] [253185] Adjusted fitment of left-hand edge of the
horizontal scrollbar in editing views when the gutter and line
bar were both turned off.
* [NFR] Fixed the round-corner glitch in the About box.
* [NFR] Fixed mismanagement of timers in the progress dialog
controller, which would lead to leaked controller instances.
