Bare Bones Software Releases TextWrangler 4.0!
Major Upgrade Highlights Advanced Power and Streamlined Interface
BEDFORD, Mass. – April 10, 2012 – Bare Bones Software today announced the release and immediate availability of TextWrangler™ 4.0, a major upgrade to its high performance, general purpose text editor for Mac OS X.
TextWrangler 4 introduces new editing and disk browser window layouts, switchable syntax color schemes, and seamless preservation of open documents on relaunch. In addition, TextWrangler 4 also includes a completely re-imagined Preferences window, new Setup window, a streamlined filtering and automation interface, new support for Verilog and VHDL, plus a new modeless “Open File by Name” feature with efficient search-as-you-type results. TextWrangler 4 includes other significant performance and user interface enhancements.
In TextWrangler 4, the new editing window now presents a streamlined layout with easy, direct access to both open and recent documents. When run on Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion), TextWrangler 4 also supports “Full-screen” mode and “any edge” window resizing.
Upon quitting, TextWrangler 4 now automatically remembers the contents of unsaved documents, and restores them the next time it is launched.
The completely re-imagined Preferences window in TextWrangler 4 makes customization easier than ever before. For example, a new “Text Colors” preference panel now makes it easy to create and switch between different color schemes. In addition, a new Setup window provides a central location to manage configuration, including FTP/SFTP bookmarks, grep patterns and file filters.
Access to text filters and scripts is now streamlined, plus TextWrangler 4 now has the ability to treat AppleScripts and Unix scripts as co-equal and both may be used as text filters or run directly as scripts.
