It's been a long time since I actually used AppleScript in BBEdit but this used
to work:
tell application "BBEdit"
set docName to name of text window 1
display dialog "Document is named" default answer docName
end tell
Yep, still works, at least in the simplest case I tested.
(I put default answer just so that the filename was selectable in the dialog,
you wouldn't normally do this, just "display dialog docName" would do.)
