Bespin 0.6.1 Release Notes
Up - Next Release - Previous Release
Known Issues
Bespin Embedded 0.6.1 is alpha software. It is still under active development and APIs are subject to change. Note also that 0.6 featured a complete retooling of the editor component, so it is likely that there will be some bugs in the editor that still need squashing.
- Command line completion is not yet implemented. (bug 539446)
- Text selection in fields other than the Bespin editor on the page (in an embedded use) does not work (bug 540081)
- The Embedded editor remains larger than we'd like, but shrinking it down is low priority at the moment.
- The cursor doesn't blink (bug 540112)
- There is no CSS syntax highlighting yet (bug 547272)
Features
- Syntax highlighting is back!
- The new highlighting engine can properly handle a language embedded in another (such as JavaScript or CSS in HTML)
- Highlighters are now created in a largely declarative way, as a set of regular expressions that are run in a state machine. There is documentation to help write syntax highlighters in the Plugin Guide.
Bug Fixes
- Clicking on the "down" scrollbar handle should no longer crash your browser (bug 541938)
- There was some overly aggressive CSS leaking out of the page (bugs 546413 and 547106)
