This is probably the expert preference you're looking for. From the command line, issue:

defaults write com.barebones.bbedit ReportReplaceAllResults -bool NO

> When performing a single-file "Replace All" operation, BBEdit will show a confirmation sheet showing the number of replacements performed. If you would prefer not to see this confirmation, you can suppress it:

See the built-in help for more expert preferences.

I'm not in front of a Mac running Mt Lion, so bear with me.  In Notification Center preferences find BBEdit and select "None" (to the left of "Banner").  That should stop it.

Replying to myself: the Notification Center (system) preferences indeed allow you to turn off these Notifications. Happy camper now. Thanks Rod for mentioning these prefs.


Me being lazy: does that turn off all notifications, or can you still get the alert within BBEdit? I use the search and replace as a 'get a count' sometimes.

Lee, good question. Well, at first I didn't see *any* notification after a Search and Replace, but then I figured that I had tried the expert pref setting that Tom Robinson mentions in this thread (which didn't seem to make a difference). Setting the bool in the expert pref command to YES indeed made the little alert at the top of the document reappear. This is pretty much what I'd like to see (and you too probably), so: stay off the expert pref setting and just shut the notifications down in the System Preferences.



thanks.
