When running a text factory, the open document is being modified.
Is there a way to have the results sent to the scratchpad and leave
the document untouched?
I would like to keep the original document unmodified.
Here’s how I would do it in the case of a text filter. I’m not sure why
the scratchpad doesn’t understand regular new line characters but the
problem is overcome by the use of "\r". For the case of a new document
you would simply change the path and then do a system call to open it in
BBEdit : system ("open -a bbedit '$scratchpad'");
#! /usr/bin/perl
use strict;
my @lines;
my $scratchpad =
"$ENV{HOME}/Library/Application Support/BBEdit/Scratchpad";
while (<>) {
print; # leave things as they are
# make modifications here
push @lines, $_; # add the modified line to the array @lines
}
open FH, ">>", $scratchpad or die $!;
print FH "\r_______________\r\r";
for (@lines){ # write each line to the scratchpad
print FH "$_\r";
}
print FH "_______________\r";
close FH;
# system ("open -a bbedit '$scratchpad'");
