  circumstances.

  run, but disconnected.
• Fixed bugs in the return values of ui.dialogs.standard_dropdown and msgbox
  dialogs.
• Fixed events.FILE_CHANGED not emitting a filename.
• Fixed bug with pipes in textadept.editing.filter_through().
• Fixed tab label display on Windows.
• Fixed bug in syntax highlighting with PHP, Django, and other lexers that embed
  themselves.

Changes:

• All buffer positions, lines, and countable entities start from 1 instead of 0.
• Support more Alt and Shift+Alt keys in the Win32 terminal version.
• textadept.editing.api_files acts as if it already has lexer tables defined.
• textadept.run.goto_error() wraps searches now.
• Added snippet trigger autocompletion via
  textadept.editing.autocomplete('snippet').
• Improved Lua API documentation generator.
• Localization keys in _L no longer contain GUI mnemonics ('_').
• textadept.snippets functions no longer have a '_' prefix.
• --help command line options are alphabetized.
• The Lua command entry can now run any view functions by name (e.g. split).
• Auto-pair, type-over, and auto-deletion of matching braces now works with
  multiple selections.
• Removed textadept.file_types.lexers table in favor of asking the LPeg lexer
  for known lexer names.
• Updated German translation.
• Changed textadept.bookmarks.toggle() to only toggle bookmarks on the current
  line.
• Removed '=' prefix in command entry that would print results; printing results
  has been the default behavior for quite some time.
• Replaced buffer.style_name[] with buffer:name_of_style().
• Session files are now Lua data files; old formats will no longer work.
• Added events.SESSION_SAVE and events.SESSION_LOAD events for
  saving and loading custom user data to sessions.

  and package.cpath, respectively.

• ui.dialogs.filteredlist() dialogs have a reasonable default width.
• Renamed keys.MODE to keys.mode.
• Moved individual buffer functions in io into buffer.
• Event handlers can now return any non-nil value instead of a boolean value
  and have that value passed back to events.emit().
• Lua command entry completions show images just like in Lua autocompletion.
• Align block comments by column if possible, not indent.
• Added per-mode command entry history which can be cycled through using the
  Up and Down keys.
• Added ui.dialogs.progressbar(), utilize it with Find in Files, and
  removed ui.find.find_in_files_timeout.
• GUI find/replace history Up/Down history key bindings swapped, mimicking
  traditional command line history navigation.
• The statusbar now indicates an active snippet.
• Updated to PDCurses 3.9.
• Experimental set of "standard" modules is provided in the modules archive
  instead of just language modules.
