<p>Bare Bones Software has released BBEdit 9.0<br />
(<a href="http://www.barebones.com/products/bbedit/index.html" title="http://www.barebones.com/products/bbedit/index.html">http://www.barebones.com/products/bbedit/index.html</a>), an upgrade to<br />
the HTML and text editor for the Macintosh. The upgrade introduces<br />
such new capabilities as Projects, non-modal Find and Multi-File<br />
Search windows, editing in browsers, text completion, and a<br />
Scratchpad.</p>
<p>BBEdit 9 also offers revamped Ruby language support, enhanced<br />
JavaScript support, updates to the ObjC, Obj-C++ and YAML language<br />
modules, transparent support for bz2 compression, and more. The new<br />
Projects feature supplants file groups by offering direct editing<br />
within the Project window, and direct manipulation of items within a<br />
project, including the ability to rename, create, and delete files<br />
and folders. Projects can contain any combination of directories and<br />
individual files, and their contents can be directly searched as well<br />
as processed by text factories.</p>
<p>BBEdit's search and replace power is now channeled through modeless<br />
Find and Multi-File Search windows, which sport new options and still<br />
offer extensive keyboard controls for streamlined operation. BBEdit 9<br />
can also directly search Xcode projects.</p>
<p>The Find Differences command now generates more usable results for<br />
file comparisons. It's now possible to review and apply discrete<br />
differences that occur within lines.</p>
<p>Extensive changes to BBEdit's text engine now support editing text in<br />
disk browsers, search results, and other text panes within the<br />
application, says Rich Siegel, founder and CEO of Bare Bones<br />
Software. Text completion, another major new feature in BBEdit 9,<br />
accelerates the creation of code and content by suggesting<br />
completions as typing is paused, or upon request, as desired, he<br />
adds. Possible completions include words in the current documents and<br />
other sources, such as the system spelling dictionary, BBEdit's own<br />
clippings, and ctags. Text completion support applies to any language<br />
and can be configured on a per language basis.</p>
<p>BBEdit 9 provides a new Scratchpad window for quickly editing or<br />
transforming text without having to create temporary files. The<br />
Scratchpad, available via the "Show Scratchpad" command from the<br />
Window menu or Dock, automatically saves its contents.</p>
<p>Siegel says that BBEdit 9 brings improvements in its Ruby language<br />
support, including improved support for text folding, handling<br />
interpretive strings, and more, as well as in its JavaScript support.<br />
The Objective-C and Objective-C++ modules have been updated to<br />
include language keywords from Objective-C 2.0. The YAML module has<br />
also been enhanced.</p>
<p>BBEdit 9 can now transparently read and write files compressed with<br />
bz2. A new Document Statistics display presents the number of<br />
characters, words, and lines in each text view's status bar. BBEdit 9<br />
customers can now automatically sync their BBEdit application support<br />
folder via .Mac/MobileMe. Other enhancements include improved<br />
awareness of Xcode, support for additional ctags formats, a new<br />
clippings set for PHP, enhancements to the HTML and Markdown<br />
clippings sets, and more.</p>
<p>BBEdit 9 is available at a suggested retail price of US$125. Any<br />
registered owner of BBEdit can upgrade for US$30. Anyone who<br />
purchased BBEdit 8.5 to 8.7 on or after Jan. 1, 2008, is eligible to<br />
receive a free upgrade. Customers who purchased directly from Bare<br />
Bones Software will be notified automatically via email. Educational<br />
discounts and site license pricing are also available.</p>
