Its likely I will make an unstable 5.0.0 release of Lexilla, Scintilla, and SciTE tomorrow.

This is a major but unstable testing release. It is very likely that there are omissions in some scripts that do not take Lexilla into account properly. The executables may not work on older systems such as Windows XP.

Scintilla API elements may change or be removed in more 5.0.x releases until a stable 5.1.0 release is made.

The interface between core Scintilla and platform layers will change before 5.1.0 with new graphics calls added. Maintainers of platform layers that want to influence the direction of these changes or check that they will be compatible with specific platforms should follow along with unstable releases.

Available from the repositories:
git clone https://github.com/ScintillaOrg/lexilla
hg clone http://hg.code.sf.net/p/scintilla/code scintilla
hg clone http://hg.code.sf.net/p/scintilla/scite
and from
https://www.scintilla.org/scite.zip Source
https://www.scintilla.org/wscite.zip Windows executable (64-bit)
