Good afternoon folks,
We're currently working on a feature update to BBEdit 12, which
includes a number of new features, as well as fixes for recently
reported issues.
Testing is currently underway, and we have a stable pre-release
version ready for use.
Note that this is a _pre-release_ version. The intent is to fix
bugs and address areas of improvement based on what our
customers have reported. However, since the software is at this
point not fully tested, there _may_ be bugs and regressions.
If this prospect makes you nervous, then sticking with the
public release versions is your best course of action. Nobody
will be offended if you choose to do so; you're under no
obligation to install and use anything but a public release. :-)
Complete change notes to date for all the pre-release builds in
this cycle are available here:
<https://s3.amazonaws.com/BBSW-download/12.1_Notes.txt>
The change notes are organized into additions, changes, and
fixes, and are annotated where appropriate with case numbers. So
if you recognize a number corresponding to a support case that
was opened for you, you can now verify that it's been fixed
correctly. Please take the time to review the changes before
using the new build -- it'll be worth your time.

* [NFR] [351534] Fixed an odd bug in which the positions of very
short HTML markup palettes were not maintained correctly
across a
close/open of the palette.
* [NFR] [351682] Fixed a regression in which choosing an item from
the title bar popup in a document opened via the built-in
FTP/SFTP support would report a -1700 error instead of
opening a
browser window for the selected directory.
* [NFR] Made further adjustments to the math used for soft
wrapping to the window with when using a fixed-width font, to
leave a little less space between the wrap point and the right
edge of the window.
* [NFR] [351868] Fixed hang which would occur when creating a new
HTML document from a template which contained certain
placeholders, or when updating placeholders in an existing
document.
* [NFR] [351746] Adjusted the minimum size of the Multi-File
Search window to fix a layout glitch resulting from changes
elsewhere.
* [351617] Dialog boxes for Process Lines Containing, Process
Duplicate Lines, and Sort Lines will now validate the Grep
pattern being used (if applicable) and will report any errors
before the dialog box is dismissed, rather than reporting a 12314
error when trying to perform the transformation.
* [351864] Fixed crash which would occur when using an invalid
format for a `#DATETIME#` clippings placeholder.
* [351798] Fixed bug in which the "HTML5" item was missing from
the "Doc Type" popup menu in the main HTML markup tools palette.
* [351588] Fixed bug in which changes to the "Show items starting
with “.” setting in FTP browser windows weren't persistent.

One final note: If you run into a bug in a pre-release version,
PLEASE DO NOT REPORT THE BUG TO THE LIST. This includes asking
about whether others have seen the same problem. Instead, please
send a bug report to <supp...@barebones.com> and we will deal
with it there. This will help us keep the list discussion on
topic and productive for all list members.
