What's new in this version:

Improved:
- Enable changing text size in Console
- Rename “Protocol Buffer” style with “Protocol Buffers.”

Fixed:
- an issue that the script console just displayed “CotEditor.ScriptError error 0.” instead of the actual message of the standard error
- an issue that the Scripts menu listed the files without extension as scripts
- an issue that the size of line numbers did not update even when the editor’s font size was changed
