No that doesn't hel: "Process Lines Containing..." just reuses the same grep pattern.
The pattern grabs the right chunks of text (there are actually 23) from the original file. I just can't find a text utility wi BBEdit that'll pipe each chunk off into its own text file. I guess I'll hv to figure out a bash script to do this. Awk is the obvious way forward. My inkling is output Awk to a bash array, then get the index, then pick out each element by its number and cat it off to its own numbered file. Or use the -exec option. But it wld be easier directly in BBEdit. Ptarmigan.
