Marked 2 hangs because of a large file
I asked Marked 2 to open a 1.2MB file. It told me that it was too large and hung showing a beach ball. I force quit it.
The problem is that each time I open Marked 2, it tries again to open that danged file and hangs again.
Is there any way to tell Marked 2 to start up without opening any files? Or is there some other solution? I suppose there are some Library files I could remove but I don't know which.
Thanks for your help.

Try this: Open Terminal and run:
open -F -a "Marked 2"
Let me know if that helps.

Brett,
Yes, this worked.
The weird thing is that I didn't close Marked 2 last night when I went to bed. When I looked just now, it had opened that huge file! (I will use your solution of course because I won't want to wait overnight when I open large files.)
I tested your solution by opening the large file again just now, doing a force quit when it hung and reopening with your -F option.
Thanks for the quick and useful answer!

P.S. I didn't sleep well. I'm overtired!

I've only listened to a few, but I like the way you two respect each other
while not always agreeing.
