Scintilla 3.3.0 released

[Neil Hodgson]

Scintilla 3.3.0 is now available from the scintilla.org web site.

Scintilla 3.3.0 is a major feature release allowing tighter integration with platform scrolling by enabling the text area and margin to be separate views which can be scrolled and drawn independently. This is used on Cocoa to allow overlay scrollers and also overshoot then spring back at start and end. Other platforms may use this in the future.

Drawing performance is improved on Cocoa and GTK+ by moving some preparation work to a high-priority idle task. This avoids situations where drawing was started only to find that drawing is needed outside the area being drawn causing the drawing to be abandoned and a complete redraw requested.

SCI_SCROLLRANGE added to allow the container to request scrolling as much as possible of a range into view. Typically used to show a match from a find command.

A potentially troublesome folding bug was fixed that could lead to permanently hidden lines.

Other changes were made and bugs fixed. A detailed list of changes is available on the history page.

Scintilla uses Mercurial (Hg) for source code control. The repository can be cloned with
hg clone http://hg.code.sf.net/p/scintilla/code scintilla

Thanks to the contributors of code and documentation and to the testers.

I finally decided to purchase Scite for OSX however the find in files option does not work.

I tried using the "find.command=grep --line-number "$(find.what)" $(find.files)" for GTK. However this produces the following error:

shell-init: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: Operation not permitted
grep: *.txt: No such file or directory

What is the correct command and do i need to install some other ported tool? from the command line this command works if I substitute in the correct search parameters.

Thanks
Mark

The issue here is that SciTE is sandboxed so is not allowed to read that directory until you give it permission through the File | Allow Access… dialog.
