Release 5.5.5 (https://www.scintilla.org/scintilla555.zip)
Released 25 February 2025.
Remember selection with undo and redo. Controlled with SCI_SETUNDOSELECTIONHISTORY. Feature #1273, Bug #1479, Bug #1224.
Serialize selection type and ranges with SCI_GETSELECTIONSERIALIZED and SCI_SETSELECTIONSERIALIZED.
For Win32, update Direct2D and DirectWrite interfaces used to 1.1 and add a lower-level approach to calling DirectWrite 1.1 by specifying SC_TECHNOLOGY_DIRECT_WRITE_1. Since Windows Vista does not support these API versions, Scintilla o longer supports DirectWrite on Windows Vista and will fall back to using GDI.
Fix segmentation of long lexemes to avoid breaking before modifiers like accents that must be drawn with their base letters. For wrapping, try to break lines without separating letters from modifiers.
For GTK on Windows, replace reverse arrow cursor with hand as reverse arrow was small in scaled modes. Bug #2460.
Fix bug on Qt where double-click stopped working when Scintilla instance had been running for weeks.
Release 5.4.3 (https://www.scintilla.org/lexilla543.zip)

Sintilla Release 5.5.0 (https://www.scintilla.org/scintilla550.zip)
Released 23 April 2024.
Add elements for inactive additional selections SC_ELEMENT_SELECTION_INACTIVE_ADDITIONAL_TEXT and SC_ELEMENT_SELECTION_INACTIVE_ADDITIONAL_BACK. When not set these default to SC_ELEMENT_SELECTION_INACTIVE_TEXT and SC_ELEMENT_SELECTION_INACTIVE_BACK. Bug #2417.
On Cocoa, avoid use of NSUserDefaults which will soon require justification when used in applications on the App Store.
Fix Win32 IME crash in windowed mode. Bug #2433.
Scale reverse arrow cursor for margins to match other cursors when user changes pointer size. Bug #2321.
Lexilla Release 5.3.2 (https://www.scintilla.org/lexilla532.zip)
Released 23 April 2024.
COBOL: Stop string literal continuing over line end. Issue #229.
COBOL: Stop doc comment assigning different styles to \r and \n at line end. Issue #229.
COBOL: Recognize keywords that start with 'V'. Issue #230.
COBOL: Recognize comments after tag or that start with '/'. Issue #231.
HTML: Implement substyles for tags, attributes, and identifiers SCE_H_TAG, SCE_H_ATTRIBUTE, SCE_HJ_WORD, SCE_HJA_WORD, SCE_HB_WORD, SCE_HP_WORD, SCE_HPHP_WORD.
HTML: Implement context-sensitive attributes. "tag.attribute" matches "attribute" only inside "tag".
HTML: Match standard handling of comments. Issue #232.
Lua: Implement substyles for identifiers SCE_LUA_IDENTIFIER.
Ruby: Allow non-ASCII here-doc delimiters. Issue #234.
Ruby: Allow modifier if, unless, while and until after heredoc delimiter. Issue #236.
Rust: Recognize raw identifiers. Issue #239, Pull request #240.

Release 5.4.2
Released 5 March 2024.
Significantly reduce memory used for undo actions, often to a half or quarter of previous versions. Feature #1458.
Add APIs for saving and restoring undo history.
For GTK, when laying out text, detect runs with both left-to-right and right-to-left ranges and divide into an ASCII prefix and more complex suffix. Lay out the ASCII prefix in the standard manner but, for the suffix, measure the whole width and spread that over the suffix bytes. This produces more usable results where the caret moves over the ASCII prefix correctly and over the suffix reasonably but not accurately.
For ScintillaEdit on Qt, fix reference from ScintillaDocument to Document to match change in 5.4.1 using IDocumentEditable for SCI_GETDOCPOINTER and SCI_SETDOCPOINTER.
For Direct2D on Win32, use the multi-threaded option to avoid crashes when Scintilla instances created on different threads. There may be more problems with this scenario so it should be avoided. Bug #2420.
For Win32, ensure keyboard-initiated context menu appears in multi-screen situations.

Release 5.3.1
Released 5 March 2024.
Assembler: After comments, treat \r\n line ends the same as \n. This makes testing easier.
Bash: Fix folding when line changed to/from comment and previous line is comment. Issue #224.
Batch: Fix handling ':' next to keywords. Issue #222.
JavaScript: in cpp lexer, add lexer.cpp.backquoted.strings=2 mode to treat ` back-quoted strings as template literals which allow embedded ${expressions}. Issue #94.
Python: fix lexing of rb'' and rf'' strings. Issue #223, Pull request #227.
Ruby: fix lexing of methods on numeric literals like '3.times' so the '.' and method name do not appear in numeric style. Issue #225.

Released 8 March 2023.
Add multithreaded wrap to significantly improve performance of wrapping large files.
More typesafe bindings of *Full APIs in ScintillaCall. Feature #1477.
Fix overlapping of text with line end wrap marker. Bug #2378.
Fix clipping of line end wrap symbol for SC_WRAPVISUALFLAGLOC_END_BY_TEXT.
Where a multi-byte character contains multiple styles, display each byte as a representation. This makes it easier to see and fix lexers that change styles mid-character, commonly because they use fixed size buffers.
Fix a potential crash with autocompletion list fill-ups where a SCN_CHARADDED handler retriggered an autocompletion list, but with no items that match the typed character.

Update with https://www.scintilla.org/scintilla521.ziphttps://www.scintilla.org/lexilla515.zip
- fix setting to bring Scintilla::PositionCR from ScintillaStructures.h inline with Sci_Position.h Sci_PositionCR
- add workaround to enable lexer for searchResult
commented out SCI_SETILEXER call on searchResult to get one result which is correctly handled by the lexer,
added comment about the current problem with property @MarkingsStruct which seems to disappear after call to SCI_SETILEXER or CreateLexer
- corrected usage of ObjC lexer
- removed unnecessary filter stuff
- use own sections for scintilla and lexilla build targets and allow parallel builds
- as libscilex is no longer existing, changed to libscintilla
- adapt makefiles and cmake
- use VS2019
- started simple changes for createlexer adaptations, nullpointercheck missing on return of lexer name from deprecated LexerNameFromID -> undefined behaviour
- movement from id -> lexer name, mostly done via LexerNameFromID + switching off corresponding compiler warning
- changed to SCI_SETILEXER from SCI_SETLEXER, SCI_SETLEXERLANGUAGE needs to be corrected, see Scintilla5Migration.html
- just commented out: SCI_LOADLEXERLIBRARY
Fix#10504, close#11419
