SubEthaEdit 3.5.4 fixes problems with Mac OS X 10.7 and allows to use the Web Inspector in the Web Preview.

For a list of all fixes please consult the release notes. SubEthaEdit 3.5.4 requires Mac OS X 10.4 or later.

Additions/New Features

• Code Folding - SubEthaEdit now supports code folding in all the shipping modes. Even without mode support you have the ability to fold arbitrary selections to gain clarity in more complicated documents.
• Document state persistence using Xtended Attributes - SubEthaEdit now saves document state (mode, folding state, window position, selection and more) for plain text files using a extended filesystem attribute.
• Clickable URLs - if the mode has URL recognition, URLs can now be opened with a direct click in a fashion that does not interfere with editing.
• New "Tidy and Pretty Print HTML" feature

Changes

• Improved the speed of Applescript based text changes in documents (e.g. the commment/uncomment script in the c-modes)
• Reduced the cases where SubEthaEdit's port mapping triggers a bug in the mDNSResponder causing it to produce a high cpu load when used with Airport Base Stations.
• All shipped modes have been reengineered to support code folding.
• Updated the seetext file format to be more efficient and support the new folding state data.
• Added additional TLS/SSL encryption mode that does not need the temporary keychains anymore and is now default.
• Improved performance when using web preview with extensive javascript code after web preview is closed again.

Fixes

• Made network protocol more robust.
• Improved memory consumption when opening big files.
• Fixed crashes that could occur when opening files > 300 MB.
• Fixed an issue in mode definition syntax names which could lead to symbols not being displayed after initially showing up.
• Fixed a crash where context clicking on an URL could lead to an application hang.
• Fixed minor issues with the encoding recognition and conversion.
• Fixed minor issues to make SubEthaEdit work well with the upcoming Mac OS X Snow Leopard.
• Fixed minor issues that occurred when inserting characters that do not exist in the current encoding.

Improves speed and stability. The integrated automatic portmapping now supports even more routers. We also made a lot of improvements to various syntax modes.

• NAT-Traversal: SubEthaEdit now automatically maps its port so it can be reached from anywhere on the internet.
• iChat Invites: Documents and the Connection Browser allow drag and drop of iChat Buddies to invite them. (iChat invites only work on Mac OS X 10.5)
• Friendcasting: if you activate Friendcasting you get automatic connections to the friends of your friends. In a typical company/group setup one publicly reachable SubEthaEdit will be enough to act as friend to connect everyone to each other.
• Many more enhancements.
