It's not the simplest way, but in BBEdit, a "line" refers to a
text object containing zero or more characters, ending with a
line break (or end-of-document). So if the document ends in a
carriage return (i.e. a blank line), the last line will be empty
and deleting it will have no visible effect. In that case, what
you need to do is inspect and delete the line _before_ the last line:
tell application "BBEdit"
tell front text document
tell line before last line
set theURL to its contents
delete its text
end tell
end tell
end tell
R.
