I had posted to this list an inquiry about ways in which my "ascii comment
generator" at
http://whs3rd.burlyhouse.net/cmn/commentx.t
could be adapted for inline operation within BBEDIT. After studying BBEDIT
manual, I
decided that the "Text Filter" capability would serve this need. I recast my
generator
in C and placed the calling unix shell script into BBEDIT's text filter folder.
Now I can type free-form lines like the first three below:
assembleComment
This function combines the content of graphic, bnr, and com into a single ascii
comment
and prints it back to BBEDIT.
void assembleComment()
int i;
.
.
.
select those 3 lines, pass them to my "litebulb" text filter and get back(best
viewed in mono-spaced font):
// _...._ _
// .' '. |
// / \ _. _ _ _ .___ |_ | _ | _ .___ .___ _ ._ _|_
// | jgs | (_| _> _> (/_ | | | |_) | (/_ |_ (_) | | | | | | (/_ | | |_
// \ ~~ /
// \ || / This function combines the content of graphic, bnr, and com
// \ || / into a single ascii comment and prints it back to BBEDIT.
// {__==}
// {__==}
// \__/
void assembleComment()
int i;
.
.
.
If anyone's interested in the methods I've used here, I can provide full
particulars. (Now to write a
text filter that can actually generate code.)
