Hey There,
BBEdit uses CRs internally, so you will always see them as EOLs in a document -
but on-disk they will be correct according to the file type. And yes this can
be confusing.
Try something like this:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
tell application "BBEdit"
set _text to text of front text document
end tell
set _text to quoted form of _text
set newText to do shell script "echo " & _text & " | tr '\\r' '\\n' | sed
's/http/•/'" without altering line endings
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Or read your input from the file rather than from the window.
