I want to retrieve my saved searches from the corrupt system. I know how to find them in the BBEdit/Setup menu, and I can double-click one at a time to see the content. But I have a lot of them. To switch back and forth for each one could take hours.

Is there a single location on disk where the saved searches are stored? If so, where, and is it possible to simply copy that file from the old system


Per the "Setup" subsection of "BBEdit’s Supporting Folders" in Chapter 2 of the included PDF manual (pages 38-39 of the current edition), what you're looking for is:

~/Library/Application Support/BBEdit/Setup/Grep Patterns.xml

and this file is readily transferrable.

[PS: This would also be an entirely acceptable support question. :-) ]
