   For Win32, Direct2D and DirectWrite interfaces were updated to 1.1. A new technology choice SC_TECHNOLOGY_DIRECT_WRITE_1 uses a lower level approach with explicit swap-chain setup. Since Windows Vista does not support these API versions, Scintilla no longer supports DirectWrite on Windows Vista and will fall back to using GDI.

   Better text segmentation and wrapping avoids problems where accents were separated from their base characters. This improves South-East Asian and South Asian scripts like Thai and Javanese where there are sometimes lengthy segments without spaces.

   A C++17 compiler is required to build Scintilla. Microsoft Visual C++ 2022, GCC 9.0, Clang 9.0, Xcode 14 Clang or newer will work. Some slightly older compilers may still work.

   A list of changes is available on the history page.

   Scintilla uses Mercurial (Hg) for source code control. The repository can be cloned with
hg clone http://hg.code.sf.net/p/scintilla/code scintilla

  Thanks to the contributors of code and documentation and to the testers.
