Same goes for version 8.2.4. Maybe it is the byte order mark (bom). BBedit has as a the very special feature to arrange one byte in one byte. Can give strange results. We have that issue at least for eight years now. I gave up.

I selected from the File > Open Recent submenu, and BBEdit 6.5.2 gave me the following error:

   This action couldn't be completed, because an error

The input text is malformed - if double-byte text, it may have been
     modified by a non-multi-byte-savvy tool (MacOS Error code -8739).

This is a file I *saved* from BBEdit in the first place. My prefs are set to auto-detect when opening files, but even if I change the pref to UTF-8, BBEdit still refuses to open the file. I can navigate to the file and open it that way, but why is auto-detect giving an error, and why won't changing the pref make the Recent submenu work properly? (I imagined holding down Option might give me joy, but no such luck.)


thanks,
