What path does BBEdit assume for "'text document' by name"? I recently wrote an Apple Script that told BBEdit to open a file, specified as a full path name as generated by tell Finders to get, and then to perform certain actions on that file. I found that subsequent references to that file (in the "tell BBEdit" block) by its full path name were not recognized by BBEdit. It wanted just the name of the file (the stuff at the end of the path).
It took a few more lines of Script to fix this probelm ... But should not a full path name always be more than sufficient to specify a file in an Apple Script "tell BBEdit" block?
