I Googled but couldn't find an answer--will the new Nisus 2.0 open your document where you last worked on it? Or at least have a keyboard shortcut that takes you to your last edit once the document is open. Thank you.

Yes, you will be back on page 348.

Lanx is correct, you will be returned to the last edit location. The insertion point (flashing i-beam / caret) is really just a special zero-length selection.
