I have a pre-10.5 script which did

    tell application "BBEdit" to set zbaTemplates to the template directory of 
web site "ZBA" as Unicode text

But BBEdit 10.5 doesn't have "web sites" any more. Now they are just projects 
with some additional properties. For UI purposes, that is fine, but for 
scripting it looks like there's a serious loss of functionality.

(1) Pre-10.5, I could talk about a web site by name -- web site "ZBA" -- 
without having to know anything about where it was on disk ... in fact, I could 
use the functionality to ASK BBEdit where it was on disk. Now that web sites 
are just projects, i looks like my script at least has to know where the web 
site project document lives.

(2) Pre 10.5, once I had the web site, I could ask for the location of its 
Templates and Includes directory (as above) or the location of its site root. 
As far as I can tell, even if I have the web site project document open, there 
is no longer any script access to its web site properties.

Am I missing something? Or do I have to go back and hard-code a bunch of 
directory paths into scripts that used to be able to ask BBEdit for that 
information?

Thanks,

        Neil Faiman
