New versions of Lexilla (5.4.9), Scintilla (5.6.2), and SciTE (5.6.2)
will be released soon. While the documentation says 29/April, it may
be delayed if the weather is nice enough for a holiday.

Changes:

SciTE 5.6.2

• Fix spurious error message when an untitled buffer has a filter
command executed on it. Bug #2504.

Lexilla 5.4.9

• Assembler: Add SCE_ASM_STRINGBACKQUOTE for NASM `back-quoted
strings`. Issue #220.
• C++: Fold for '#pragma region' and '#pragma endregion'. Issue #324.
• F#: Allow '!' for async keywords. Issue #352.
• F#: Stabilize styling of long strings. Issue #353.
• F#: Fold long strings with fold.fsharp.quotes. Issue #354.
• LaTeX: Fix bug when "\" at end of file. Issue #355, Pull request #356.
• Pascal: New SCE_PAS_MULTILINESTRING for multi-line triple-quoted
strings. Issue #321.
• Ruby: Fix bug when "?\" at end of file. Issue #355, Pull request #357.

Scintilla 5.6.2

• Add error status SC_STATUS_OUTSIDE_DOCUMENT that is set when
operations are attempted on a position outside the document. Positions
are checked earlier to prevent actions partly succeeding. Incomplete
actions could lead to features that are out of synchronization like
change history referring to text that has been deleted.
• On Win32 with DirectWrite in a GDI scaled application, draw
sharper text in autocompletion lists. Bug #2505.
• On Win32 update scaling when the application moves to another
monitor. Bug #2503.
