A filter doesn’t deal with documents at all. A Unix script used as a filter
receives the text to be transformed as input (on STDIN) and writes the
transformed text to STDOUT.
A Unix script receives relevant information from a collection of environment
variables set by BBEdit before it runs the script. In particular, BB_DOC_PATH
is the path to the document file for the current document when the script is
run. You should read the section "Unix Scripting: Perl, Python,Ruby, Shells,
and more!" starting at page 314 in Chapter 14, ,_BBEdit and the Unix Command
Line_, of the BBEdit User Manual.
