I've been a huge fan of BBedit since version 3 or so, and (along with Keyboard Maestro) consider it one of the most important tools.
I've got a GREP search problem that is stumping me. Basically I have to find a ' character followed by either character A or character B (or C or D, but we'll start small) in a file using grep. They are Japanese characters used in names. I can do a find for '[加隆] which will let me find ' followed by either 加 or 隆, which works great for *most* lines. Some lines have a tab in between the ' and the kanji, meaning that a grep for ' [加隆] will work for these lines, but not lines without the tab. So what I need is a grep search for ' followed by [either a tab or nothing], followed by either of the [加隆] characters. Can anyone help me? I've spent hours reading blog posts but can't find anything to help me. It'd great if there was a brute-force way to search for ([john][mary][mike]) to bring up john, mary or mike. Perhaps this is another approach, though I can't think of how to do this directly, either. Much appreciation to anyone who can help me figure this out! -- This is the BBEdit Talk public discussion group.
