Use of `Edit Markup…` Popover in files without `html` extensions?

2018-03-10 Thread Brian Christiansen

Rich, Nice, BUT the file opens in a new window. How about just “activating” it within the Project’s “Currently Open Documents”? I appreciate discovering all of these no-so-obvious jewels. Thanks. Alfredo > On Mar 10, 2018, at 9:34 AM, Rich Siegel wrote: > > On 3/6/18 at 5:33 PM, f.alfredor.

Thanks, Lee, but that’s not a “compact/terse list”. Nonetheless, following your hint, I decided to extract the espresso (using BBEdit as my espresso machine, of course) and here it is. To suit your taste(s), you can add your preferred amount of textured milk to produce a macchiato, a cappuccin

How to Force BBEdit Open Docs in Dock Menu to Always List Alphabetically
