First, you can save a couple of steps by using File -> Export as
Text to create a file directly from the search results.
Next, though there is no option to omit the file & line number,
you can easily strip that info via an appropriate grep search &
replace, and, if you expect needing to do so often, you can either
a) save the search & replace pattern via the Saved Patterns
(g) popup
within the Find or Multi-File Search windows, or
b) create a _text factory_ and add a suitable 'Replace All' action,
then save that factory into the "Text Filters" subfolder of BBEdit's
app support folder and invoke it via Text -> Apply Text
Filter ->
[Your_Filter_Name].
Beyond that, may I ask what you plan to do with the saved search
results, e.g. are they purely archival or how else do you wish
to transform them?

Hi all!
Just started with BBEdit.
How do i export search results into a new document? Currently i do this:
Search
Copy Search results
Open new document
Paste
Problem here is that in front of every line i get the filename
and line number where BBEdit found what i was searching for. I
want to eliminate that.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Ton.
