You need only specify a suitable URL in your script, e.g. an 'ftp:' or
'sftp:' URL for a file you want to edit, and that will tell BBEdit how to
handle the resulting item.
For example, if you prepend the following to that action
====
tell application "BBEdit"
-- (the following is only an example; please replace this
-- with a real URL before using :-)
--
set theURL to "sftp://user:@host.example.com//Users/me/Sites/hello.html";
set theTitle to "hello.html"
set newItem [...etc...]
end tell
====
and run your script, BBEdit should create an item named "hello.html" within
the specified collection of the active project, and you can then just click
that item to open the specified remote file in BBEdit.
