  • Added support for TextWrangler 4. Also, completion now works in TextWrangler search results browser windows.
  • BBAutoComplete now has an automatic keyboard shortcut in Microsoft Word 2011. (Previous versions of Word need FastScripts to assign a shortcut.)
  • BBAutoComplete now runs as 64-bit under Mac OS X 10.6 and later, which should make it launch faster.
  • BBAutoComplete is now code-signed using a Developer ID certificate for Gatekeeper.
  • Modernized the Software Update window and code.
  • Made various improvements to the documentation.
  • Updated the disk image and Apple Help layouts.
1.5.3—September 12, 2008
  • When using BBEdit 9, auto-completion now works in disk browser, project, and search results windows.
  • BBAutoComplete now requires Mac OS X 10.4 or later.

1.5—February 7, 2007
  • BBAutoComplete now requires Mac OS X 10.3 or later.
  • Now works with Microsoft Word.
  • Added Find completions using spell checker option. This is useful when the open documents don’t contain much text, and therefore aren’t very useful for suggesting completions. It can also be used to help type words that you aren’t quite sure how to spell.
  • Can now find completions in BBEdit and TextWrangler results browser windows.
  • Rewrote the Software Update… feature. When a new version is available, it can now show you the release notes.

Also, the software update checker now works behind HTTP proxies.
