   Scintilla is a cross-platform source code editing component.

   Scintilla 5.6.2 is now available from the scintilla.org web site.

   This is a feature and fix release.

   A new error status SC_STATUS_OUTSIDE_DOCUMENT, is set when an attempt is=
 made to insert text outside the document bounds. Checks are performed earl=
ier to prevent actions partly succeeding. Incomplete actions could lead to =
features that are out of synchronization like change history referring to t=
ext that has been deleted.

   On Win32 in a GDI scaled application, there were fixes in some circumsta=
nces. Scaling updates when window moved to a different monitor. Text sharpn=
ess increased in autocompletion lists.

   A signed version of Scintilla.DLL is included in the SciTE Windows execu=
table download that can be used by downstream projects. It is signed "Open =
Source Developer, Neil Hodgson".

   A C++17 compiler is required to build Scintilla. Microsoft Visual C++ 20=
22, GCC 9.0, Clang 9.0, Xcode 14 Clang or newer will work. Some slightly ol=
der compilers may still work.

   A list of changes is available on the history page.

   Scintilla uses Mercurial (Hg) for source code control. The repository ca=
n 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.

   Neil
