Hey Balt,
You can do pretty much what you want, although the logics can get interesting.
try
tell application "BBEdit"
tell text of front text window
find "\\bFOR\\b" options {search mode:grep, starting at top:false, wrap
around:false, backwards:true, case sensitive:true, match words:false} with
selecting match
find "\\bENDFOR\\b" options {search mode:grep, starting at top:false,
wrap around:false, backwards:false, case sensitive:true, match words:false,
extend selection:true} with selecting match
end tell
end tell
on error eMsg number eNum
set {c, s} to {return, "------------------------------------------"}
set e to s & c & "Error: " & eMsg & c & s & c & "Error Number: " & eNum & c &
s
beep
display dialog e
end try
This is case-sensitive for FOR...ENDFOR.
It expects the cursor to be between the terminators.
Save the script.
Put it in the Script Menu.
Give it a keyboard shortcut.
And go to town.
