I am dealing with the output of an xml parser (xerces) and it gives me
a character array and positions inside that array (it does not care
with lines). Having an applescript or some other solution that can
move the cursor to a given character position would efficiently and
elegantly solve my problem. I am ready to implement this, but I am new
to BBEdit. What should I look for?
