well... there's this cryptic paragraph about "seeding
preferences"... not clear to me what I should do.
I have followed directions on my main workstation. I would
think that I now should:
1. log on my other machines,
2. turn off DropBox sync
3. delete the preference folder from my user's "application support/bbedit"
4. rename and move the preference data
5. turn on DorpBox sync
6. start BBEdit
Right?
No. :-)
Once Dropbox has transferred the contents of your BBEdit app
support folder to your other Macs, you need only quit & relaunch
BBEdit on those machines and it should automatically recognize
and use the app support folder contained within Dropbox.
The only potential complication is whether you also wish to
share BBEdit's _prefs data_ via Dropbox; I prefer not to myself
but that's up to you and the instructions describe the necessary
steps if you do.
