Release 5.5.2 ( https://www.scintilla.org/scintilla552.zip )
Released 21 August 2024.
Add SCI_SETCOPYSEPARATOR for separator between parts of a multiple selection when copied to the clipboard. Feature #1530.
Add SCI_GETUNDOSEQUENCE to determine whether an undo sequence is active and its nesting depth.
Add SCI_STYLESETSTRETCH to support condensed and expanded text styles.
Add SCI_LINEINDENT and SCI_LINEDEDENT. Feature #1524.
Fix bug on Cocoa where double-click stopped working when system had been running for a long time.
On Cocoa implement more values of font weight and stretch.
Release 5.4.0 ( https://www.scintilla.org/lexilla540.zip )
Released 21 August 2024.
Inside Lexilla, LexerModule instances are now const. This will require changes to applications that modify Lexilla.cxx, which may be done to add custom lexers.
Lexer added for TOML "toml".
Bash: Handle backslash in heredoc delimiter. Issue #257.
Progress: Fix lexing of nested comments. Pull request #258.
Force lower-casing of case-insensitive keyword lists so keywords match in some lexers. Issue #259.

README for building of Scintilla, Lexilla, and SciTE
Scintilla and Lexilla can be built by themselves.
To build SciTE, Scintilla and Lexilla should first be built.
See lexilla/README for information on building Lexilla.
*** GTK+/Linux version ***
You must first have GTK+ 2.24 or later and GCC (7.1 or better) installed.
Clang may be used by adding CLANG=1 to the make command line.
Other C++ compilers may work but may require tweaking the make file.
Either GTK+ 2.x or 3.x may be used with 2.x the default and 3.x
chosen with the make argument GTK3=1.
To build Scintilla, use the makefile located in the scintilla/gtk directory
cd scintilla/gtk
make
cd ../..
To build and install SciTE, use the makefile located in the scite/gtk directory
cd scite/gtk
make
sudo make install
This installs SciTE into $prefix/bin. The value of $prefix is determined from
the location of Gnome if it is installed. This is usually /usr if installed
with Linux or /usr/local if built from source. If Gnome is not installed
/usr/bin is used as the prefix. The prefix can be overridden on the command
line like "make prefix=/opt" but the same value should be used for both make
and make install as this location is compiled into the executable. The global
properties file is installed at $prefix/share/scite/SciTEGlobal.properties.
The language specific properties files are also installed into this directory.
To remove SciTE
sudo make uninstall
To clean the object files which may be needed to change $prefix
make clean
The current make file supports static and dynamic linking between SciTE, Scintilla, and Lexilla.
*** Windows version ***
A C++ 17 compiler is required.
Visual Studio 2019 is the development system used for most development
although Mingw-w64 9.2 is also supported.
To build Scintilla, make in the scintilla/win32 directory
cd scintilla\win32
GCC: mingw32-make
Visual C++: nmake -f scintilla.mak
cd ..\..
To build SciTE, use the makefiles located in the scite/win32 directory
cd scite\win32
GCC: mingw32-make
Visual C++: nmake -f scite.mak
An executable SciTE will now be in scite/bin.
*** GTK+/Windows version ***
Mingw-w64 is known to work. Other compilers will probably not work.
Only Scintilla will build with GTK+ on Windows. SciTE will not work.
Make builds both a static library version of Scintilla with lexers (scintilla.a) and
a shared library without lexers (libscintilla.so or or libscintilla.dll).
To build Scintilla, make in the scintilla/gtk directory
cd scintilla\gtk
mingw32-make
*** macOS Cocoa version ***
Xcode 9.2 or later may be used to build Scintilla on macOS.
There is no open source version of SciTE for macOS but there is a commercial
version available through the App Store.
To build Scintilla, run xcodebuild in the scintilla/cocoa/ScintillaFramework or
scintilla/cocoa/Scintilla directory
cd cocoa/Scintilla
xcodebuild
*** Qt version ***
See the qt/README file to build Scintilla with Qt.
