GENIUS!

:-)

If you copied your serial number from the web page or confirmation email, the 
"Enter License" command will pick it up from the clipboard.

License code entered automatically?!?

[BBEdit Talk]

I'm just curious about how the hell this works.

I bought an upgrade from ver. 12 on my desktop iMac.

I then downloaded, installed and opened BBEdit 14 on my brand-new MacBook.

When I clicked BBEdit > License, the serial number was already there.

The hell?  Did BBEdit get info from my Library folder, check my license 
state with the server, and then automatically enter it?
