Is there a better way to debug than copy/pasting between BBedit and Zend ?
Just open the same file in Zend - it can be set to 'notice' when
BBEdit (or any other app) saves a file and reload it's own copy.
Since BBEdit (and Dreamweaver) can also do this, I can happily edit a
single file simultaneously in multiple apps, switching between them
depending on the task in hand:
* BBEdit (for general "don't get in my way" stuff, writing html, CSS,
Preview, find/replace)
* Zend (for PHP auto-completion, debugging)
* Dreamweaver (messing with tables, automated Javascript stuff)
I have cmd-opt-ctrl set to 'Open in Dreamweaver' (and 'Open in
BBEdit' set to the same combo in Dreamweaver), then in my BBEdit
'Scripts' menu I have this AppleScript, set to 'cmd-opt-ctrl-z':
set zde to fromPosixPath
"/Applications/Zend/ZendStudioClient-5.1.0/bin/ZDE.app"
tell application "BBEdit" to set the_file to file of window 1
tell application "Finder" to open the_file using zde
I also have 'Spark' set to launch [BBEdit|Dreamweaver|Zend] with
cmd-opt-[b|d|z]
I can even edit a file that's currently open in BBEdit from the PC on
my other desk and the saved changes are (almost) instantly reflected
in BBEdit's Preview window.
It all works beautifully.
John.
