I found this online and adapted to BBEdit. Change "bbedit" to "textwrangler" if necessary. This Terminal command clears the list. defaults delete com.barebones.bbedit.LSSharedFileList These commands disable or limit the list. defaults write com.barebones.bbedit NSRecentDocumentsLimit 0 defaults write com.barebones.bbedit.LSSharedFileList RecentDocuments -dict-add MaxAmount 0 These should undo the changes so the list is enabled again. defaults delete com.barebones.bbedit NSRecentDocumentsLimit defaults delete com.barebones.bbedit.LSSharedFileList RecentDocuments If necessary you can restart the dock using this command. killall Dock The preferences files are in ~/Library/Preferences/. You can apply these commands to any app using the identifier which names the preference files in that folder.
