Sintilla [Release 5.4.3](https://www.scintilla.org/scintilla543.zip)
* Release 5.4.3: Released 9 March 2024
1. Fix redo failure introduced with 5.4.2. [Bug #2432](https://sourceforge.net/p/scintilla/bugs/2432/).
2. Add SC_AUTOCOMPLETE_SELECT_FIRST_ITEM option to always selects the first item in the autocompletion list. [Bug #2403](https://sourceforge.net/p/scintilla/bugs/2403/).
* Release 5.4.2: Released 5 March 2024
1. Significantly reduce memory used for undo actions, often to a half or quarter of previous versions. Feature #1458.
2. Add APIs for saving and restoring undo history.
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. 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.
6. For Win32, ensure keyboard-initiated context menu appears in multi-screen situations.
Lexilla [Release 5.3.1](https://www.scintilla.org/lexilla531.zip)
* Release 5.3.1: Released 5 March 2024
1. Assembler: After comments, treat \r\n line ends the same as \n. This makes testing easier.
2. Bash: Fix folding when line changed to/from comment and previous line is comment. Issue #224.
3. Batch: Fix handling ':' next to keywords. Issue #222.
4. 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.
5. Python: fix lexing of rb'' and rf'' strings. Issue #223, Pull request #227.
6. Ruby: fix lexing of methods on numeric literals like '3.times' so the '.' and method name do not appear in numeric style. Issue #225.

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.
