   BBEdit 11.5

   Agen G. N. Schmitz

   Bare Bones Software has released [1]BBEdit 11.5 with over 150
   additions, refinements, and fixes. The venerable text editor updates
   the Find Differences feature with a streamlined dialog box, a new
   folder-comparison option (which will only list items in the results
   that exist in the two selected folders), a new Differences setting in
   Text Colors preferences, and Synchro Scrolling turned on by default for
   Differences windows.

   The update also brings the option to use iCloud Drive for sharing
   application support and setup items (as well as using it for a shared
   backup folder), adds Start Speaking and Paste & Match Indentation
   commands to the Edit menu, splits the Un/Comment command into two
   commands (Un/Comment Lines and Un/Comment Block), indicates documents
   with unsaved changes with a ring around the close widget in the side
   bar, improves performance in the computations for soft wrapping text,
   and fixes a bug where autosaved document data would be lost if the
   application crashed or was forcibly quit. The lengthy release notes are
   as helpfully descriptive as ever, and include the occasional bit of
   snark that Barebones has become known for.

     Did you know that you could set BBEdit up to use the Escape key to
     trigger completions? That's OK, nobody else did either.

   BBEdit now requires OS X 10.9.5 Mavericks or later, and it is fully
   compatible with 10.11 El Capitan. ($49.99, free update, 11.6 MB,
   [2]release notes, 10.9.5+)
