I'm working on adding some features to a bbpackage for
displaying help text in a new document. Ideally I would like to
use this feature as specified on the command line:
*--clean* (no short variant)
Piped data will be placed in an untitled document whose state is
initially clean (unmodified) so that if you do not further edit
the data, you can close the document without confirmation.
Can I create a document like this using AppleScript? [...]
Not directly; thus, I recommend using 'do shell script' within
your AppleScript so you can take advantage of the "--clean"
flag, e.g.
====
tell application "BBEdit"
set someText to "The quick red fox jumped over the lazy
brown dog.
"
do shell script "echo '" & someText & "' |
/usr/local/bin/bbedit --clean"
end tell
