This AppleScript will switch from BBEdit to TextMate:
(* Script to switch a document from BBEdit to TextMate.
Written by Maarten Sneep, 2008. Enjoy *)
tell application "BBEdit"
-- save the active document
if (modified of active document of window 1) then
save active document of window 1
end if
-- get path of active document
set mypath to get file of active document of window 1
-- get line number of insertion point
set theSelection to selection
set theline to (startLine of selection)
-- Hope that 'mate' is installed in a location that is in the
standard path.
-- if sh complains, use full path here.
-- assumes mate can be called with a +linenumber argument to set the
active line.
do shell script "mate +" & (theline as string) & " " & quoted form of
(POSIX path of mypath)
end tell
-- end script
Copy and paste the script text in the Script Editor, and save the
compiled script in ~/Library/Application Support/BBEdit/Scripts//.
Keyboard shortcuts can be added from the Scripts Palette in the
Windows menu.
I don't know anything about scripting TextMate, you'll have to ask
elsewhere. The shell command "bbedit +linenumber file" is available.
Hope this helps.
Maarten
