If you're using 1.1b6+ it will report new “unofficial” versions in the software update checks. When I go back to official versions depend on when I get the things resolved that is preventing me from doing official versions.

Anyways, I know this is an often-discussed topic, but I missed it - is the symbol popup and the other options that pop up windows with symbols/functions the final form of the much-requested function/method/symbol menus? At the risk of sounding whiny, I hope not :-(

As stated in the release notes and a dozen other places, this is just some preliminary stuff! Mainly done to test the feasibility of extracting symbols (function names) using scopes only.

My bad! Sorry! Didn't make it through all the release notes, I started but they seemed largely to cover syntax for language files and so on... I should have known better...

I don't know how Allan orders his release notes (I suspect it's in the order he remembers to update them), but a lot of the best new features are buried deep in the list. If you're following the betas, it's good to go through the whole list. E.g. in b11, better HTML output, tm-file:// and backreferences all were buried deep...
