Maybe make a note that other people's BBEdit installations might be in 
a different place.

The problem with BBEdit is you have write all this code to get syntax 
coloring to work.  I wish it was more like UltraEdit on Windows which 
allowed to to create text files that trigured color coding.  Oh well.  
If you could send your list of keywords that would be great.
