Hey Richard,

If I understand correctly you mean BBEdit is NOT respecting your saved document 
placement when you close and reopen the document.

Hmm...  I'm not seeing that.

Due to changes to OSX BBEdit no longer saves that sort of data in the 
resource-fork of the file, so it's not as bombproof portable as it used to be.

I think (but am not certain) that document position is stored in the .DS_Store 
file in a file's parent directory.

So for instance – if I copy a file that has a stable position to another 
directory the positional data is lost – and the file opens where it wants to.  
If I then move and/or resize it as I wish and save it again the new positional 
data is stored, and the file reopens where it *should*.

I'm using OSX 10.11.2 by the way.

What version of BBEdit are you using?  I'm using the latest pre-release 
announced on this list.

Offhand I don't remember hearing any complaints on the list about this issue, 
so you should probably prepare a bug report and submit it to the support 
address.
