The highlight of this release is the addition of soft wrapping to the TextArea, which you can see below:

soft-wrapping-demo.mp4

This makes TextArea one of our most powerful widgets. Looking forward to seeing what you build with it!

Note there is a breaking change here. The TextArea now defaults to a multi-line soft-wrapped editor rather than a more code oriented editor. If you want the original behaviour, use the code_editor classmethod. i.e. replace TextArea with TextArea.code_editor.

Also in this release is a new suspend decorator which will temporarily suspend the currently running app and allow you to launch another terminal app (which doesn't even need to be a Textual app).

There are plenty of other fixes and enhancements. See below for the full details...
