What is new in CodeEdit 0.3.6

# Task Output, External File Changes, Invisible Characters

This release introduces editor restoration, a new feature that keeps your place across files, tabs, and sessions so you can pick up right where you left off. It also adds a global search shortcut for faster navigation, a major upgrade to task output with a full terminal emulator so you can view and interact with tasks just like a real terminal, and improved task controls with new shortcuts and a dedicated menu. File changes made outside the app are now reflected in open editors automatically, and you can choose to show invisible characters while editing including customizable replacement characters and warning characters for pesky unicode characters.

We also have a lot baking in this update, including a new language server install menu in settings. This section is experimental, and we're going to improve upon the existing implementation ASAP. We'll have more information on language servers soon, so expect this feature to change and grow over the next few releases. Expect clearer installation permissions as well as more visible package information before installation.
