Hey Folks, Jeeze. It's been a long time since I seriously scripted BBEdit. In this case I want to prefix every line in the front document.
This works fine: tell application "BBEdit" tell front text document set before first word of line 3 to "•" end tell end tell This doesn't: tell application "BBEdit" set before first word of every line of front text document to "•" end tell This does the job perfectly: tell application "BBEdit" tell front text document add prefix ( lines 1 thru -1 ) prefix "•" end tell end tell And you can loop through or do a find/replace of course. All this discovered, and I still feel like I'm missing something. Any more useful magic? Thanks. -- Chris --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the "BBEdit Talk" discussion group on Google Groups.
