well... there's this cryptic paragraph about "seeding preferences"... not clear to me what I should do.

Apart from my prior message, 'seeding' refers to copying BBEdit's actual _preference settings_[1] from one machine to another, since as things stand (and as described in that same paragraph ;-), it is not possible to sync an application's prefs settings via Dropbox/et al.

================
[*Note* Since the system does not support relocation of an application’s core preferences data file (/Users/<username>/Library/Preferences/com.barebones.bbedit.plist), you cannot directly sync these settings. You may, however, copy BBEdit’s core preferences file to other machines to 'seed' them with your preferred preference settings.
================

[1: These settings correspond to the options presented in BBEdit's Preferences window, apart from key shortcuts which are stored outboard in the app support folder and thus can be directly shared.]
