[ANN] BBEdit 11.1.2 (3741) pre-release

[Rich Siegel]

Good { morning, afternoon, evening },

We're working on an update to BBEdit 11 which will add some new
features and 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 the changes in the software since the
the previous pre-release 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 -- 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.

Fixes
-----

* [309089] Fixed crash which would occur when using "Save As" to
save a file whose automatically generated default name was longer
than 255 characters.

* [309074] Fixed bug in which sub-line differences computation
would take too much time and take too much memory, and
crash on
extremely large comparisons which would cause it to run out of
memory.

* File comparison for sub-line differences can now be cancelled,
in cases where it takes long enough to matter.

* Fixed a lurking memory leak which would occur after various text
transformations and when computing sub-line differences.

* [309030] Fixed a crash which would occur when deleting a large
quantity of items from inside of a folder that's
represented as
an application menu (such as Scripts or Clippings).

* [308987] Fixed bug in which making edits at certain points
in a
very large CSS document would lead to incorrect
recalculation of
syntax coloring information, with resulting coloring mistakes
until the document was closed and reopened.

* [308981, 309009] Made a change to improve performance and reduce
memory consumption while making automatic state snapshots; this
generally shouldn't be noticeable unless you have a tremendous
number (hundreds) of documents open.

* [309024] Fixed bug in which attempting to comment (via insertion
point placement) a single line in a language for which only block
delimiters were available would end up doing nothing. (Examples
of this would be HTML or CSS.)
