Good afternoon folks,

We're currently working on a feature update to BBEdit 13, which includes a number of new features, as well as fixes for previously 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/13.1_Notes-414011.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.

============================================================================

Here is a list of changes since the previous pre-release version:

version 13.1 (414011)   (2020-04-07)

Additions
---------

o   (none in this build)

Changes
-------

*   [DOC] [356932] Added an explicit "port" field to the
    configuration dialog for FTP/SFTP bookmarks, and made it look
    more like the regular FTP/SFTP connection panel.

*   Made a change to the behavior of "Open Selection" so that it
    will attempt to resolve absolute and home-relative paths
    (unwinding backslash escapes, if necessary). If the selection
    resembles either an absolute or home-relative path but is not
    valid, Open Selection will proceed directly to opening the "Open
    File by Name" window without attempting a search.

Fixes
-----

*   [NFR] [386340] Fixed a bug in which the Markdown
    scanner/colorizer mishandled HTML comments.

*   [NFR] Fixed bug in which CSS variable coloring didn't work when
    the style block was enclosed in a conditional (such as `@media`
    or `@supports`).

*fin*

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.

The package can be downloaded from our web server:

Enjoy,

R.

Someday I'll look back on all this and laugh... until they sedate me.
