Fix double copy to Clipboard from OPF and NCX Tabs
Fix GoToLinkOrStyle when class attribute present but cursor not in the class attribute
Fix TabManager scroll to position to properly handle position of 0
Fix crash using Split At Markers when body tag is completely empty (no whitespace or anything)

New Features:

BookBrowser can now link javascripts similarly to how it links stylesheets
Epub3 javascripts can now open windows if javascript is enabled
Add Find and Replace context menu to clear its curent values and history
Add support for 3 Automation lists that support editing and automatically running a list of commands that can include all Sigil plugins and a limited set of Tools
Add support for BookBrowser to insert a blank javascript file
Do not require replacement prompt if current book is unmodified and input plugin is run

Notes:

The latest version of the Sigil User Guide can always be downloaded from the Sigil website, or from its own GitHub repository.

Three new e-Reader plugins for Sigil have been built to help users see what their ebook might look like in real e-readers while still inside Sigil. See this post for descriptions and links.

Please check the Sigil website for important Sigil support links, additional resource downloads, and platform-specific trouble-shooting tips/requirements.

Mac users should still download and install ActiveState’s ActiveTcl Community Edition to utilize plugins that use Tk/Tcl GUIs. More here.

Mac users should also check out the website entry on the New Release File Format.
