You can use AppleScript, maybe in Version 8 (I don't know), certainly
in 9. I opened Script Editor, and recorded a search, then just
modified it for the subsequent searches. Be aware that Google's Mailer
will break the search lines. Everything from "replace..." to "--End"
is on one line.
---------
tell application "BBEdit"
activate
-- This search was recorded
replace "alpha" using "beta" searching in text 1 of text document
"pi50.txt" options {search mode:grep, starting at top:true, wrap
around:false, backwards:false, case sensitive:false, match
words:false, extend selection:false} -- End
.
-- Next search was just a copy & paste of the previous one
replace "beta" using "gamma" searching in text 1 of text document
"pi50.txt" options {search mode:grep, starting at top:true, wrap
around:false, backwards:false, case sensitive:false, match
words:false, extend selection:false} --End
end tell
