This makes sure non-native full screen mode will not use the areas with the notch (which exists in new Apple Silicon MacBooks) when menu bar is configured to not show during non-native full screen. Previously it will use the whole screen which resulted in some texts being clipped by the sensor bar / "notch".

Add a new option MMNonNativeFullScreenSafeAreaBehavior which allows the user to get the old behavior back by setting it to 1. This allows for maximum display area on a MacBook display, but some content will be obscured by the notch and the rounded corners. This is a command-line-only option for now as it's relatively niche. In the future we could potentially add new types of behaviors (such as showing the tab bar or toolbar in the notch area).

Also, fix a manual one-pixel offset in the old menu bar size calculation which was a hack to align things to hide the first row of pixels (which arguably looks better if cursorline is on) but it was actually incorrect. Just don't do the one-pixel hack.

Updated to Vim 9.0.472.

Announcements
====================

Sponsors
--------------------

MacVim now allows you to sponsor the team! Any amount would be
appreciated and it is of course optional. See the announcement (#1271)
for more details.

Supporting old versions of macOS (10.12 or below)
--------------------

Currently, macOS supports macOS 10.9 or above. However, this is getting
harder to do so as time goes on (e.g. the latest Xcode doesn't support
building for it). In the near future, MacVim will mostly target 10.13
(High Sierra) or above, with 10.9 - 10.12 as legacy support. Visit this
discussion (#1288) if you would be affected and would like to know more.

Features
====================

Resizing MacVim new options
--------------------

You can now smoothly drag and resize MacVim without having it
constrained to fixed multiples of the text size, by setting the
"Smoothly resizes window" under General preference pane. This also
allows MacVim to behave better when used with third-party tools (e.g.
BetterSnapTool) to snap it to one side of the screen. #1276

The command line can now be pinned to the bottom of the window with a
setting (under Appearance preference pane). This makes it look better
aligned when using smooth resizing, or in other situations where the
window size is not a direct multiples of Vim's text size (e.g. full
screen or guioption+=k). #1280

New supported text styles
--------------------

Vim highlight groups `strikethrough`, `underdouble`, `underdotted`,
`underdashed` are now supported. #1287

New Vim features
--------------------

Virtual text allows you to place custom texts to be displayed inline for
diagnostic information and more (e.g. build errors, CSS color preview).
See `:help virtual-text` for more information.

The default color schemes (e.g. desert) are now fixed to look correct
again.

Misc options and commands:
- `set nosplitscroll` lets you preserve the windows' scroll positions
  when splitting. (v9.0.0445)
- `:defer` allows you to clean up in a function. (v9.0.0370)
- `:echowindow` allows you to echo a message to a floating popup message
  window instead of to the command line. (v9.0.0321)

Fixes
====================

- Fixed non-native full screen not working well with the notch on newer
  MacBook's when set to not show menu bar. You can also use
  `MMNonNativeFullScreenSafeAreaBehavior` to force MacVim to use the
  notch area as well if you don't mind some content being obscured. #1261
- Fixed bad interaction when two settings ("Open untitled window: never"
  and "After last window closes: Quit MacVim") are set together. #1257
- Fixed the bundled Vim tutor not working when launching from the Help
  menu #1265.
- Fix crashing on launch under macOS 10.9. #1212
- Fixed potential crash when switching appearance mode in MacVim
  preferences. #1270
- Korean localized menus no longer throw a syntax error on launch. #1278
- `did_install_default_menus` should work in MacVim now. #1267

General
====================

Sparkle (updater for MacVim) is now updated to 1.27.1 (#1284), and we no
longer use DSA keys for signing updates (#1285) as we are using EdDSA
already.

Scripting
====================

- Scripting languages versions:
    - Python is now built against 3.10, up from 3.9.

Compatibility
====================

Requires macOS 10.9 or above.

Script interfaces have compatibility with these versions:

- Lua 5.4
- Perl 5.18
- Python2 2.7
- Python3 3.10
- Ruby 3.1

Updated to Vim 9.0.1276

Features
====================

Dictionary lookup
--------------------

You can now use Force Touch or Cmd-Ctrl-D to look up definitions of word
under the cursor (or selected text in visual mode). This will also
preview URLs, and support data types such as phone numbers and
addresses. #1312 #1313

This feature can also be invoked programmatically from VimScript (see
`:h macvim-lookup`). #1315

Tool bar / Touch Bar / menu icons
--------------------

You can now use SF Symbols for Tool bar and Touch Bar icons, including
using different symbol styles such as "palette" or "multicolor". Menu
items can now also use the `icon=` syntax to specify icons as well. See
`:help macvim-toolbar-icon` for details. #1329

The default tool bar also has updated icons to look similar to SF
Symbols used by newer macOS versions. #1214 by @sfsam

Window management actions
--------------------

There are new `macaction`'s for managing the MacVim window. The new
`zoomLeft`/`zoomRight` actions allow you to pin the window to the
left/right of the screen, and there are also new actions for interacting
with Stage Manager (requires macOS 13+). See `:h macvim-actions` for
details. #1330

Pre-release updates / Sparkle 2
--------------------

MacVim now supports pre-release software builds. It's sometimes hard for
us to release frequent updates due to the desire to pick a stable
upstream Vim version, needing to test the release on multiple OS
versions, making sure there aren't half-complete or buggy features, and
other reasons.

This new feature now allows us to push pre-release beta builds out in a
more frequent fashion, which could be useful if there are particular
features or fixes that you would like to try out before the next
official release. Pre-release builds will be released depending on bug
fixes and features instead of a fixed cadence. Do note that these
pre-release builds may not be as well-validated and may have half-baked
features.

If you are using the built-in auto-updater to update MacVim, you can
turn this on by going to Advanced settings pane, and enable "Enable
pre-release software updates".

This feature is only available for macOS 10.13 or above.

The auto-updater has also been updated from Sparkle 1.27.1 to 2.3.0 for
10.13+ builds. Legacy (10.9-10.12) builds are still using Sparkle 1.

See #1332.

New Vim features
--------------------

New `smoothscroll` option allows you to scroll through a long wrapped
line (using Ctrl-E or mouse wheel) without immediately jumping to the
next line. (v9.0.0640)

`splitscroll` option has been renamed `splitkeep`, with more flexibility
than before. (v9.0.0647)

Sound playback on macOS is now supported. You can use `has('sound')` to
check. See `help sound` for details. (v9.0.0694)

Terminals now support `:confirm` for `:q`, etc, which also means
MacVim's Cmd-W will work properly for terminal windows. (v9.0.0710)

Virtual text had numerous bugs fixed.

General
====================

Legacy build for 10.9 - 10.12
--------------------

Per a previous announcement (#1271), the default MacVim binary will now
require macOS 10.13 or above. Users of macOS 10.9 - 10.12 can use a
separate "legacy" build which will still be supported. The legacy binary
will still have the latest versions of Vim and be supported, but may not
have all the latest features (e.g. pre-release builds).

If you are using the auto-updater (Sparkle) to update MacVim, it should
"just work" and find the best version for you. If you are downloading
MacVim from the website, there is also a link to download the legacy
version marked for 10.9+ as well. If you download the normal binary
marked for 10.13+ from the website, it won't work on these older macOS
versions.

See #1331.

Fixes
====================

CoreText Renderer clipping and rendering bugs
--------------------

Unicode characters with multiple composing characters (e.g. "x⃗") will
now render correctly. #1172

Texts (e.g. Tibetan, Zalgo texts) that are taller than the line height
will no longer be clipped inappropriately. You can use a new setting
`MMRendererClipToRow` to re-enable clipping if the tall texts are
distracting. #995 / #1356

Tab crash
--------------------

Fixed a crash when opening new tabs that seems to only occur in macOS 13
Ventura. #1333

Other bugs
--------------------

- Fixed non-native full screen not working well with the notch on newer
  MacBook's when set to not show menu bar. You can also use
  `MMNonNativeFullScreenSafeAreaBehavior` to force MacVim to use the
  notch area as well if you don't mind some content being obscured. Note
  that the previous release also claimed it fixed this, but because the
  binary was built against an old macOS SDK (Big Sur), the fix did not
  work in the binary release. #1261
- Allow "Open untitled window: never" and "After last window closes:
  Quit MacVim" to be set together again. Added safeguards to make sure
  doing so won't immediately close the app. #1338
- Edit.Cut / Copy menu items will now be properly disabled when there
  isn't selected text. #1308
- Fixed potential `:emenu` crash when the menu is associated with an
  action in a non-valid mode. #1305
- Fixed bug where just bringing up the right-click (or the
  MacVim→Services) menu would somehow copy the selected texts to the
  system clipboard. #1300
- Fixed a Japanese input method bug where using left/right arrow to move
  to a different section of the input text would previously result in
  the candidate list not showing up at the correct position. #1312
- Fix non-CoreText renderer not handling text styles like strikethrough
  correctly (note: this renderer has been deprecated for a while and you
  should not use it). #1296
- This release uses an older sh/bash syntax file because the latest one
  in Vim has a bug. #1358

Misc
====================

New settings:

- "No drop shadows" (Appearance). #1301
- "Treat Ctrl-click as right-click" (Input) (#1326). This was previously
  configurable via command-line, but now also possible in the settings
  pane under the new "Input" category.

"About MacVim" now reports the version number in a clearer way with
clearly specified release number vs Vim version.

Known Issues
====================

Printing
--------------------

Printing using File→Print or `:hardcopy` is currently not working under
macOS 13 Ventura due to its removal of PostScript support in the Preview
app. This will be fixed in a later release. See the issue for
workarounds. #1347

Scripting
====================

- Scripting languages versions:
    - Perl is now built against 5.30, up from 5.18.
    - Ruby is now built against 3.2, up from 3.1.

Compatibility
====================

Requires macOS 10.9 or above. (10.9 - 10.12 requires downloading a
separate legacy build)

Script interfaces have compatibility with these versions:

- Lua 5.4
- Perl 5.30
- Python2 2.7
- Python3 3.10
- Ruby 3.2
