That list is still alive.

BBEdit's #! Menu has a rather useful Check Syntax option. Unfortunately this is not active for PHP.

PHP however has its own linter which can be accessed via a command line option. I'm just in the process of wrapping this in an AppleScript.

What I'd like to do is to attach this script to #! > Check Syntax. What I'm not sure about is how to convince BBEdit that it wants to make this menu option active for PHP scripts. I'm hoping that somebody will be able to steer me in the right direction?

BBEdit will enable or disable that menu item based on whether it knows how to syntax check the language of the front document.

The best solution is to probably leave the script in the Scripts menu and assign it a different keyboard shortcut.
