I'm going to re-post my previous suggestion because it: will work for
all of these cases, boils down to one line, is extremely easy to
understand, and involves no complicated regex knowledge.
Create a BBEdit Text Filter which does this:
cat $@ | lynx -dump -listonly -nonumbers -stdin -width 1024
That's it. (Assuming lynx is installed, if it's not, it's easy to get.)
Translation:
cat $@ = Take the standard input
send (pipe) it to lynx
-dump = dump whatever lynx processed to stdout
-listonly = create a list of links as output
-nonumbers = don't number links in the output (1…2…3…)
-stdin = tell lynx to look for stdin
-width 1024 = how wide you want the output to be
`lynx` is designed to parse HTML in all sorts of weird forms, and it
will handle cases where there are relative links with or without a
<BASE>.
I realize that there are always more than one way to do something, but
rather than try to reinvent HTML parsers, I'd rather use a program
which has been developed for years to do what you're trying to do.
`lynx` may not be part of the standard OS X install, but it's easy to
get. If you use Homebrew, it's just `brew install lynx` otherwise go
to Rudix and get the installer.
You can download the full version of this Text Filter which I use (and
which includes some additional error checking) here:
