BBEdit 15
Bare Bones Software (Mastodon): A new Minimap palette shows a high-level overview of the active text document.

Easier Mac Audio App Installs
Paul Kafasis: As a result of changes Apple made back in MacOS 11, our apps have been stuck with a setup process that’s much more complicated than we’d like.
