Textadept 11.5 alpha

[orbitalquark]

Textadept 11.5 alpha is released from https://github.com/orbitalquark/textadept/releases/tag/textadept_11.5_alpha.

This version has a number of significant changes, notably in the lexer and theme areas. There shouldn't be any major incompatibilities though, but you are encouraged to migrate your configs and themes away from deprecations, as they'll be removed in the future. If you do experience an incompatibility that breaks something of yours, please let me know so that I can fix it.

Bugfixes:

• Better display of startup errors.
• Reset horizontal scroll position after loading files.
• Improved showing API documentation from Lua command entry.
• Do not record history for multiple selection edits.
• Updated Bash lexer to improve heredoc handling
