I’m having trouble understanding how to use bbedit as an external editor

and explain exactly what I’m supposed to do to get this to work. I’ve
looked quite a bit for information but everything I find is either generic
or so terse I can’t figure it out. I’m not understanding how you get bbedit
to “hand-off” the latex file to texshop for processing.
You hand off via Applescript. Get the name of the document you are
editing, tell TeXShop open it up and compile it. But there is a better
way: Back when I used BBEdit for latex, I used the wonderful CompileTeX
tools. They are a collection of applescripts that call a monolithic
shell script that does all the heavy lifting. You can probably avoid
TeXShop all together and use Skim as the viewer. That's what I do
(though I now edit the source in Vim).
