Version 11.6.7:
Fixed
- Fixed a bug in which clicking the "OK" button in the "Text Options" dialog box would fail to accept any changes in the character width for Soft Wrap Text
- Added read and until to the Unix Shell Script keyword list
- Fixed a bug in which the Perl syntax coloring scanner would get confused by backslash references appearing before the opening quote of a string
- Fixed crash which would occur when closing a multi-file Differences results window after having viewed a number of differing file pairs
- Fixed a crash which would occur when rapidly switching between files in a multi-file Differences window, and the first difference was a "nonmatching lines" difference which required more than a trivial amount of time to compute
- Added @available and __builtin_available to the C-family language keyword lists
- Added nonnull and returns_nonnull to the C-family language keyword lists
- When running on 10.13, the application no longer attempts to use the built-in "Consolas for BBEdit" font, because the OS won't load it and instead defaults to some proportional monstrosity. (If you are finding that this happens anyway, go to the "Editor Defaults" preferences and use the "Restore Defaults" button.)
- Note: Please see our OS compatibility guide for important information about using BBEdit on pre-release versions of macOS 10.13
- Fixed a bug in which clicking on a link with a fragment in it (e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BBEdit#Features) in a live preview window would lose the fragment when asking the default browser to open the link
- Made a fix so that braces preceded immediately by backslashes (within the body of a function) no longer confuse the Perl function scanner
BBEdit is an indispensable tool for me for some years now. I do like it, especially since version 11, as I find it solid rock stable since then. I prefer it over emacs or textmate (both also very good), I think just because BBEdit (or TextWrangler) was always on my Macs. I regularly use the sftp-option to edit documents, which I find very comfortable. Compared to all other software I have used over the years this text editor earns definitely 5 stars. Therefore, I recommend it to everyone who needs to edit text documents from different sources. A better Matlab integration would be nice.
