What's new in BBEdit
Version 12.6.7:
Additions:
- BBEdit 12.6.7 does not add any new features. (It doesn't take away any, either.)
Changes:
- Made a change to ask the OS-provided print panel to place the page attribute controls (orientation, scaling, paper size) in the panel proper, rather than hiding them behind the "Page Attributes" section in the popup menu
Fixes:
- The application could crash when clicking in a text view, given certain unexpected internal state
- Worked around a system windowing behavior which would cause the following unexpected behavior: when starting the application in which the saved state specified a window in full screen mode, if the application was started by opening a document that wasn't previously open in that window, the document being opened (and any other such additional documents) would open into a separate window
- The default printing timestamp setting was not applied correctly to the Print panel's settings when printing a document
- Worked around file system behavior on macOS 10.15 in which files written into TMPDIR and then passed to BBEdit for comparison would disappear when clicking on the file's contents in the Differences window. (For example, temp revision files created by git difftool or svn diff.)
- Quitting the application while open documents were waiting to process a change notification from the ctags subsystem
- Hang when spell-checking documents and the effective language module indicated that a particular range of text was to be skipped
- The cursor would alternate between an I-beam and an arrow while dragging out a text selection
- Certain edits within a "PHP in HTML" source file would set up a situation in which subsequent edits would cause syntax coloring to get confused (typically manifesting as uncolored text after a certain point in the document)
- Trying to save a change to a file in a Zip archive would report a 12612 error if the Zip archive file didn't actually have a file name extension
- The internal SFTP client didn't properly clean up after itself when disconnecting. Eventually this would lead to errors when attempting to perform SFTP operations
- Disk browsers would sometimes fail to open the selected file for viewing, following certain manipulations of the list (such as twisting a folder open or closed, or refreshing an opened folder with a different number of items) and depending on the relative placement of selected items
Requirements for BBEdit
- Intel 64
- macOS 10.12.6 or later

Have you seen the user manual? It's almost 400 pages... for a text editor! And that's not because it's overly verbose but because the ridiculous number of abilities BBEdit has to document. I'm sure I don't use more than... 15% of them and still find BBEdit essential. Yes, there are other editors that let you edit code, but there is very little with BBEdit's breadth and depth of features.
That all said, I'm only giving 4.5 stars because there's no way to get the Function menu to only show functions (not objects, etc.). Gotta keep you trying, guys! (See! *That* is how you rank something that's awesome except for your pet feature. :-) )
tell application "BBEdit"
set source language of front text document to "(none)"
set source language of front text document to "(automatic)"
end tell
Place it in BB's scripts folder and run when the coloring goes to pot.
