Haha Quickeys and KeyboardMaestro. Yes, I remember the sharp pain of that loss, but I've been using KM ok for years. Def not a power user, though, so can someone explicate how to create a macro that adds "Open with BBEdit" everywhere? I tried a few things but no joy. Reply directly if it seems

Vlad, Thanks! I wouldn’t have troubled you for basic Git low-down; I was just curious about the specifics of how you’re using it here. But with your clarification (plus some surfing), I see that what you’re suggesting is pretty rice-and-beans (mamaliga and cheese?). The Lynda.com tutorial looks

I prefer to edit all text in BBEdit, but it's obviously not a notebook app. It would be great to store writings in a dedicated notebook app (e.g. Bear or Agenda) and be able to edit them in BBEdit. It would feel sort of like using BBEdit as a service. Has anyone figured out a clever workflow?
