Hello again.

I don’t know if this is possible or not, but I thought I would ask.

While I obviously realize that Googlebot couldn’t give a hoot regarding how my 
sitemap.xml file is organized, being a perfectionist, I am.

Thus, I want to organize my sitemap according to my personal liking; that is,  
with pages with the highest priority at the top, followed in sequence by those 
with lower priorities.

Furthermore, I want all pages which belong to a particular directory to be 
listed together as well. In other words, all docs in the “Articles” directory 
will be grouped together. All docs in the “Poetry” directory will be grouped 
together. All docs in the “VerseLists” directory will be grouped together. And 
on and on it goes.

So, to accomplish this, I thought I could use the “Process lines containing” 
option, and then, using a grep pattern in the file name, lastmod date and 
priority fields, I could copy all four strings contained in a URL section — in 
other words, from the opening “<url>” tag to the closing “</url>” tag to a new 
document.

However, BBEdit does not seem to want to have anything to do with processing a 
multi-line selection contains three grep patterns.

In short, if I give BBEdit something like this . . .

        <url>
                <loc>https://www\.billkochman\.com/Articles/(.+?)\.html</loc>
                <lastmod>(.+?)</lastmod>
                <changefreq>weekly</changefreq>
                <priority>(.+?)</priority>
        </url>

. . . and ask it to copy all URL sections which meet that criteria to a new 
document, it does nothing . . . not even an alarm beep saying “You can’t do 
that!”.

And, yes, I do have the grep box checked in the processing window.

So is there a way to process an entire section of lines like that, and treat it 
as a whole, or is this an exercise in futility?

Thank you.

Kind regards,

Bill K.
