Is there a way to specify the wrap margin when launching bbedit

there anyway to tell BBEdit to hard wrap a new document? All the
instances of 'wrap' in the manual are about soft wrap.
What specifically are you doing?
Editing files form the CLI that need to be wrapped at 72 characters.
I can do this with nano and vi (eg vim +'set tw=72'), but not in
bbedit.
That is still somewhat vague.
Are you doing the equivalent of
user types `emacs file`
user edits file
user saves file and exist to terminal
Or are you trying to use the bbedit tool as your EDITOR for some other
terminal based software?
If this is the later, I'm having deja vu. Didn't we just have a long
thread about this?
There is on specific feature in BBEdit that will automatically enforce
hard wrapping to a certain width. You are, of course, free to hard
wrap the text before you save and close the document.
It sounds like you want to automate this. If you are using the bbedit
tool as your editor, I'd suggest wrapping it in a script so you can
post-process the results.
