Good morning, We're currently working on a maintenance update to BBEdit 15 to address a few recently reported issues.
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/15.5.1_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. 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 <[email protected]> and we will deal with it there. This will help us keep the list discussion on topic and productive for all list members. Here is the list of changes made since the 15.5 public release: ================================================================================ version 15.5.1 (15C65) (2025-06-04) Additions --------- o (none in this build) Changes ------- o (none in this build) Fixes ----- * [506181] Fixed misbehavior (and occasionally a subsequent crash) which would occur when using the sidebar Arrange commands when collections were present and had been twisted open. * [451263] Improve the granularity of sub-line differences when comparing HTML/XML files. * [507163] Fixed bug in which text factories with an extremely large number of operations (close to a hundred) would fail to start, due to resource exhaustion in the OS. * [506608, 507114] When loading a chat API description, allow arrays and dictionaries in the `additionalRequestParameters` dictionary. * [507271] Fixed bug in which the default highlight color for instances of selected text was not correct for dark color color schemes. * Fixed bug in which the evaluation period was not reset when it should have been. * [507340] Made a change to prevent slowness in Anaconda startup from delaying application startup. * [507280] Fixed bug in which scripts did not honor previously requested output options (output file targeting, clearing, etc). * Desaturate the frame around highlighted delimiters in order to reduce clutter. *fin* The package can be downloaded from our web server: https://s3.amazonaws.com/BBSW-download/BBEdit-15.5.1_15C65.dmg Enjoy, R. -- Rich Siegel Bare Bones Software, Inc. <[email protected]> <https://www.barebones.com/> Someday I'll look back on all this and laugh... until they sedate me. -- This is the BBEdit Talk public discussion group.
