I'm using BBEdit 8 (but willing to upgrade if necessary). I have a
series of search and replace strings that I need to perform on a
document. I'd like to build these once, then have BBEdit run them all
on the document. Can that be done? How?
The easiest way is to create a UNIX Filter (renamed Text Filter in BBE 10)
Here is a filter that will capitalize all a, e and o in the document.
I have writen it in such a way that the whole text of the document is
treated as a unit rather than read line by line
#!/usr/bin/perl
my $wholetext = "";
while (<>) {
$wholetext .= $_
}
$_ = $wholetext;
# Substitutions:
s/a/A/g; #1
s/e/E/g; #2
s/o/O/g; #3
print;
