Hey Dom,
That's not really a job for find/replace since some calculations are required.
Maarten and JD have given a couple of example Text Filters which should be
saved here:
~/Library/Application Support/BBEdit/Text Filters/
The following scripts will work with your single line of data or something like
this:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1,4
Some embedded text.
10,20
20,2
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This script produces the same output as Maarten's using Perl instead of Python.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#! /usr/bin/env perl
use v5.010; use strict; use warnings;
while (<>) {
if ( m!(\d+),(\d+)! ) {
foreach ( 1..$2 ){
say "$1_$_";
}
} else {
print;
}
}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
But perhaps you want to increment from the value of the left-hand number to
that of the right-hand number rather than starting the index at 1.
This one only handles positive incrementing.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#! /usr/bin/env perl
use v5.010; use strict; use warnings;
while (<>) {
if ( m!(\d+),(\d+)! ) {
if ( $1 > $2 ) { die "Error: value 2 ($2) > value 1 ($1)!\n " };
foreach ( $1..$2 ){
say "$1_$_";
}
} else {
print;
}
}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
