[ANN] BBEdit 9.6
Rich Siegel
We are pleased to announce the release and immediate
availability of BBEdit 9.6. This is a free upgrade for anyone
using 9.0 through 9.5.1, and includes a number of new features,
refinements to existing features, and fixes for reported
problems. The high points of this new version are:
* document creation and validation support for HTML5;
* improved contextual completion support for tags and
attribute names
in HTML documents;
* enhanced completion of CSS property names (including vendor-specific
properties);
* extensive internal rework to improve performance and memory utilization;
* Lots of other little additions and changes to improve your
life with BBEdit in subtle ways.
A complete digest of the changes is available here:
<http://www.barebones.com/support/bbedit/arch_bbedit96.html>
If you're already using BBEdit 9 (or a demo), just choose "Check
for Update" from the BBEdit menu to get the update, or go to the
BBEdit updates page:
<http://www.barebones.com/support/bbedit/updates.html>
*** Please note that the system requirements have changed.
BBEdit 9.6 requires Mac OS X 10.5 or later (10.5.8, 10.6.4 or
later recommended). If you are running an older version of the
OS, Check for Updates will not offer you the new version.
If you're using an older version of BBEdit, you can download the
9.6 demo from here to try it out:

Enjoy,
R.

TextSoap still works (and we still recommend it) -- but you need
to invoke it off the Services menu, now. It hasn't gone
anywhere. :-)

Love the HTML formatting tweaks!

These were accessed with the convenient TextSoap palette. The 30+
TextSoap cleaners that I have configured for the Services menu are
different—primarily for working with RTF and accessed with a QuicKeys
toolbar.
The 9.5 setup was very convenient because I could apply a cleaner and
immediately see the results—syntax coloring and preview window.

Language Modules:
Apache Configuration.plist
Lasso.bblm
SQL
No PDFHighlight. I suspected Lasso.bblm, removed it, and restarted.
Launch successful.
The Lasso.bblm that comes with BBEdit has some errors and does not
include some keywords that I use for a framework (Knop), so I had
fixed them in my info.plist in earlier versions. I carried those fixes
forward, and it works again. Thanks for the nudge in the right
direction!

I presume it was a bug report, in my case ...

This appears to be what is going on with the unindicted
co-conspirators list. That is I see my name as the last entry,
but do not see names of other posters who indicated they were
also unindicted co-conspirators. Now, I wonder if there is any
significance to the 4 names I see ahead of my in this entry.

Yeah, I was in the middle of writing an excited email to my closest friends when it occurred to me that I should try it from another account. I don't know what made me check, but I'm glad I did before I made an ass of myself.

I suspect that this is just a silly Barebones gimmick to make
us all feel like a part of the Barebones "family".
In other words, I suspect that every single BBEdit user will
find his or her name in the "unindicted co-conspirators"
entry, preceded by three other users' names.
In fact, I suspect that the program is merely getting this
information from the active account information. In other
words, whatever account you happen to be logged in with, is
the name that will show in the unindicted co-conspirators"
entry. Give it a try, and see if I am correct.

appears to have broken at least a portion of the search and replace
function. After re-installing the entire package, rebooting, and going
through the usual rigamarole, trying to search and replace (escaped) \r
\r\r with \r\r causes an immediate BBEdit crash when trying to enter
the replacement string. Sometimes, it breaks when trying to enter a
search string with an escaped character.
I'm not a happy camper, as this means that I can do approximately zero
useful work with the "improved" version.

reporter of what few bugs I notice. This is a credit to BB's overall
quality, as in a past life I was a software quality control director
and notice these things.

field I entered:
\
No crash yet. Then:
r
Ka-boom! I didn't try other escaped strings.
So you're not alone.
Fortunately it is trivial for me to use Time Machine to grab the
previous version of BBEdit from my system, so I can continue working
till this issue is resolved.

To replicate the issue:
* open a file
* close the Find window if it is open
* CMD-F to re-open the Find window
* enter \r in Replace
To avoid the issue:
Keep the Find window open in the background, or if you have it open,
do a Find without an escape character, then enter "\r" in a subsequent
find.

some work done.

Hey Steve,
I don't seem to have this problem. I've run your scenario with both the modal and non-modal dialog - no crash.

I have questions:
1. What steps do you do before the first "open a file"?
2. When you open the Find window, the keyboard focus is in the
Search field. So what steps are you using to start typing in the
Replace field?
Thank you,

open at the time of the crash.

without a crash, but as soon as I type "r" after "\" it crashes.
Last night I found that it crashed when typing a space character in
the Find window. At that point, I just bailed and reverted to 9.5.1. I
can reinstall 9.6 to do further testing.

Since we still can't reproduce this problem locally, I'd appreciate if
anyone who can would please write to support so we can gather more details.
As always :-), that is: <sup...@barebones.com>

used to be a seamless work environment for me has now turned into a
frustrating experience. I'm now reminded of the days when I worked in
an office and was forced to use a PC. Using a Mac shouldn't be this
way.

by the change acknowledging that "The API was pretty old - slightly
tweaked from Mac OS 8 days.". Like you I missed it initially but
quickly got used to using the Services menu.

using:" {popup list} in TextSoap Plugins Preferences. This feature
allows selecting a different set of cleaners from those used in the
Services Menu.
Hope the TextSoap developer comes up with a universal palette
solution. I think it can be done because CopyPaste Pro seems to be
able to do it.
