Bruce,

Not to be the stupidest person on the block, but not only can I not
find this paragraph in the "Secret Preferences" help section, but when
I tried to run the command you gave me, it didn't work. I even
restarted BBEdit.

What version of BBEdit are you using? I am using 8.5.1.

Thanks once more,

Carole

Here it is:
##
Add Temporary Files to the Open Recent Menu
Ordinarily, BBEdit will not add files to the Open Recent menu if they
are located in the system temporary directories (/tmp or /private/tmp).
However, if you routinely work with such files and want them to appear
on the Open Recent menu, you may issue the following Terminal command.

defaults write com.barebones.bbedit RememberRecentTempFiles -bool true

If you have applied this change, but no longer want to have such files
added to the Open Recent menu, issue the following command in the
Terminal.

defaults write com.barebones.bbedit RememberRecentTempFiles -bool false
