Command-` for cycling between windows (and this is a system-wide convention 
that should work in just about any app). For documents in a single window, 
Command-Option-[ and Command-Option-]. I don't recall if those are the 
defaults, but you can easily set them to whatever you want -- they just 
trigger the View -> Previous Document and Next Document commands.

BBEdit's double-click to balance (i.e. select) only seems to work when the 
document is set to a source language where quotes have special meaning. For 
example, you can't seem to balance quotes when the source language is set to 
(none), but it does work if you set it to Perl or PHP.

I use a script, which I call "Select Quoted String", with a keyboard 
shortcut to consistently perform this action. I didn't write this one, but 
it looks like it may have been based off of a similar script I wrote 
earlier, called "Toggle Quotes", which toggles the nearest, enclosing quotes 
from single to double and back again.

Note that neither of these scripts require a text selection -- just place 
your cursor somewhere between some enclosing quotes and fire away.

Hope these help.
