   Ulysses 12.2

   Agen G. N. Schmitz

   The popular [1]Ulysses writing app for the Mac and iOS has been updated
   to version 12.2 with a number of Mac-specific bug fixes. A 2016 Apple
   Design Award Winner, Ulysses recently tied BBEdit in our recent survey
   of Markdown-capable editors (see '[2]Your Favorite Mac Markdown
   Editors,' 26 July 2017).

   Releasing version 12.0 in October, the Mac edition of Ulysses added the
   capability to search and replace newlines and tabs, ensured correct
   export of marked tags to HTML or EPUB, improved the scrolling editor
   and resizing of sidebars, and added shortcuts to move lines up or down.

   While previously added to the previous iOS-focused version 12.1,
   Ulysses 12.2 adds the high contrast D12 editor theme with its
   streamlined use of color as the Mac default. The update also fixes a
   crash when printing on macOS 10.13 High Sierra, improves scrolling when
   using Typewriter Mode, corrects large paragraph spacing below image
   previews, improves pasting of content from specialized clipboard apps
   (such as [3]Paste), and ensures that moving paragraphs via shortcuts
   now always scrolls the editor.

   Ulysses has moved to a subscription model (see '[4]Ulysses Writing App
   Moves to Subscription Pricing,' 10 August 2017), which costs $4.99 per
   month or $39.99 annually for access to both Mac and [5]iOS apps (a
   [6]student discount is also available for $10.99). It's available from
   the [7]Mac App Store (which offers a 14-day free trial on all devices),
   as well as part of the $9.99-per-month [8]Setapp Mac app subscription
   service. ($39.99 annual subscription, free update, 21 MB, [9]release
   notes, 10.11+)
