[ANN] BBEdit 9.5
Good { morning, afternoon, evening },
We are pleased to announce the release and immediate
availability of BBEdit 9.5. This is a free upgrade for anyone
using 9.0 through 9.3.1, and includes a number of new features,
refinements to existing features, and fixes for reported
problems. The high points of this new version are:
* Live Search, which provides an incremental search bar in
editing windows;
* Zip file browsing in disk browsers;
* Enhanced AppleScript attachment points;
* Improvements to document state storage and settings management;
* Lots of other little additions and changes to improve your
life with BBEdit in subtle ways.
A complete digest of the changes is available here:
http://www.barebones.com/support/bbedit/arch_bbedit95.html
If you're already using BBEdit 9 (or a demo), just choose Check
for Update from the BBEdit menu to get the update, or go to the
BBEdit updates page:

*** Please note that the system requirements have changed.
BBEdit 9.5 requires Mac OS X 10.5 or later (10.5.8, 10.6.3 or
later recommended). If you are running an older version of the
OS, Check for Updates will not offer you the new version.
If you're using an older version of BBEdit, you can download the

Re: [ANN] BBEdit 9.5
I don't think I've encountered very many, if any at all of the bugs that were fixed, but I do like the clarification of the UTF-8 designations. The following UI changes have been made to text encoding selection: Unicode (UTF-8, no BOM) has been renamed to Unicode (UTF-8). Unicode (UTF-8) has been renamed to Unicode (UTF-8, with BOM). The 30% speed increase is helpful too.

I would suggest making this optional, at least by a defaults write command: When you first save a file which begins with a shebang line, BBEdit will now make that file executable (a+x, as modified by the umask). It doesn't necessarily affect me, but I could imagine a case were you wouldn't want files being made executable behind your back. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the BBEdit Talk discussion group on Google Groups.

I'm limited to OS 10.3.9 for other reasons so it doesn't matter right now but that scares me. I save BBEdit preferences for files in the resource fork with confidence that when I use a simple cp or perhaps an scp or ftp of my file to a Windoze or Ubuntu friend he will receive a faithful copy of the text without something else appended or even, perish the thought, some plist format that obscures the text with multiple line end characters as with a BBEdit worksheet. If I copy the file to a backup Macintosh server, using a resource-preserving method, will it open over a network with the preferences preserved? Please add some comments with some more details about the change. And tell me that @ sign in the command line above is only because I'm reading this using Classilla on Mac OS 9.1 which likely has problems with unicode. It looks like an AT sign in an email address to me. -- -- Give me liberty or give me Obamacare -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the BBEdit Talk discussion group on Google Groups.
