i am enjoying playing grep finds in BBedit
i can envisage using it to re-organise a document I am working on to
prepare it for insertion into a Filemaker DB
Right now I'd like to learn a little thing which I don't yet understand
I can write simple find and replace patterns
I'm currently looking at a most simple one to pick out special
numbers from a documents
search pattern: BS [\d]+
I've run this in BBedit and finds the strings that I want it to
Now I want to produce a document with only the results of the
implemented search
In Terminal that would seem to be egrep -o "searchpattern" File >
newFile
But it doesn't work
why not?
