What's new in this version:

Bugfixes:
- Fixed a bug where cycling windows (command-~) would not hide full screen window when it was cycled out (20120203-2).
- Saving a new document with the same name and path as an already open document in Bean is now rejected with an alert (20120204-1).
- Style > Paste… items now more faithfully restore the text selections after acting (20120204-3).
- Fixed a bug that could cause the text cursor to disappear due to a negative window number when moving a document from one window to another (20120209-1).
- The scroller could incorrectly remain hidden when selecting ‘Move to Grouped Window’ or ‘Merge Document Windows’ from full screen. Fixed (20120210-2).
- The Inspector, when snapped to a document window, no longer moves vertically when the Preference window is closed (20120212-1).
- Fixed a bug where the Show Info window could appear when not wanted (20120212-2).

Changes:
- Added buttons for bold, italic, underline, and strikethrough to the Inspector (20120203-1).
- Added alternate [press ‘option’ key to reveal it] menu item: Insert > Date (Long Format) and Time (20120204-2).
Bean ordinarily reveals newly exported documents in the Finder, but now you can disable this behavior with the following terminal command (change YES to NO to reverse the setting):
- defaults write com.bean-osx.Bean prefDoNotRevealExportedFilesInFinder -bool YES
- For the vision impaired, Edit > Speech > Document Counts reads aloud the word and character counts, while Edit > Speech > Document Attributes describes font and paragraph attributes at the text cursor as well as indicating whether a list or text table is present (20120204-4).
- The image resizing control now shows image size in points (20120205-1).
- When you add a tab stop to the ruler (for example, with a mouse click), you can now change the tab stop type by double-clicking (or alternatively by option-clicking in 10.5 and 10.6) on the tab symbol in the ruler. The tab stop will change from right tab, to left tab, to center tab, to decimal tab and cycle back. OS X 10.7 Lion will provide a tab-stop popup menu when you control-click (or right-click) on the text ruler.
- Added a context (right-click) menu to the text ruler to show and hide the ruler controls (10.5 and 10.6 only).
- Added a menu item to the context menu of the side bar document list: Move to Separate Window / Move to Grouped Window / Exit Full Screen.
Bean now supplies default tab stops at 1/2 inch (U.S.) or 1 cm (metric) intervals. If you wish for your new untitled documents to have no tab stops, use the following terminal command [change YES to NO to reverse the setting] (20120215-1):
- defaults write com.bean-osx.Bean prefNoDefaultTabStops -bool YES
- Added French Localization, courtesy Ange Lefrère.
- Other localizations also updated.
