Per the release notes at 
http://www.barebones.com/support/bbedit/arch_bbedit10.html


If you use Dropbox, you can relocate your BBEdit application support data to 
your active Dropbox folder, and BBEdit will use them there in preference to the 
locations in ~/Library/. In this way, you can easily share supporting files 
with multiple BBEdit installations (handy for multiple machines on your desk).

Here's how:

Quit BBEdit if it is running.

Move your home/Library/Application Support/BBEdit to yourDropbox/Application 
Support/BBEdit/. Note that by default, there is no Application Support folder 
in your Dropbox, so create it if necessary.

Note: The system does not support relocation of the core preferences data file 
(~/Library/Preferences/com.barebones.bbedit.plist), so you won't be able to 
synchronize preference settings. However, if you use MobileMe, its ability to 
sync preferences should do the job.

Note: The ability to share supporting files between multiple installations of 
BBEdit does not excuse you from the terms of the end-user license. You can use 
Dropbox to share the supporting files with whomever you like, but you must 
continue to abide by the terms of the license agreement.

If you like, you can relocate "BBEdit Backups" from~/Documents/BBEdit Backups 
to ~/Dropbox/BBEdit Backups/, and BBEdit will place your backups there instead. 
(As before, you can alias it to some other location.)
