[Afx] [Mac] BevelButton and other plugin controls: These controls now
            show up again at runtime even if they are the very first
            control of this type. (Feedback ID:ypoamrfx, bxxtmkxm)

Excellent, thank you. Does this also apply to separators? (bug gbglnbmr)

[New] [IDE] Code Browser: now indicates Protected scope with an icon
            badge distinct from that used for Private.

cool, been wondering if we'd get that

[Afx] [All] Custom Class Constructors: Custom classes with constructors
            now have the constructor fired when that class is
            auto-instansiated.

Like on a window you mean?  If so, awesome!

[Fix] [Win] Date: Setting the Second, Minute or Hour properties to > 60
            or 24 (depending on the property), or < 0 now result in a
            proper date. (Feedback ID:lbijjazv)

Oh cool, that'll be handy for doing time calculation.

[Afx] [Mac] EditField: drag-selecting a range of text beyond the top or
            bottom of the EditField once again properly scrolls the
            text up or down. (Feedback ID:rmswdbsf)

[Afx] [Car] EditField: No longer draws in the wrong place in certain
            circumstances, such as when deleting a character while
            editing a button caption via the Properties window.

[Fix] [Win] EditField: Paste is now unicode savvy.


Thank you

[Afx] [Mac] EditField.StyledText: Now retains current selection
            information between appends and inserts. (Feedback
            ID:vogxlgrz)

[Afx] [Mac] EditField.StyledText: Now updates the scrollbar properly
            when you add/remove style runs. (Feedback ID:ypfakreu)

[New] [All] StyleRun: Now takes an optional parameter to its
            constructor which allows you to set the text.  ie)
            Dim sr as StyleRun
            sr = new StyleRun( "This is my text" )  (Feedback
            ID:lwqsacdo)


Hey, those are my bugs, yippie!

[Afx] [IDE] Language Reference: Scrollbar no longer stops working once
            you've clicked one of the navigation buttons.

thank god.

[Opt] [Mac] Linker: Built applications will tend to be smaller for many
            projects.

always good.  will have to test

[New] [All] Networking: Added three new networking classes to make
            networking with RB easier.  Please see the New Networking
            Classes.txt ReadMe for more information about the
            EasyTCPSocket, EasyUDPSocket and AutoDiscovery classes.

Ohohohoh. Could this AutoDiscovery thing be somehow related to rendezvous? If so, kick ass!


[New] [All] Window: Added Minimize, Maximize, and Restore events.
            Minimize doesn't get called for classic.

SWEET!
