Thanks Chris.
The full syntax I'm now using is:
*set* grep_result *to* (*find* "my regex here" searching in *document* *of*
*text
window* docNameAsString options {search mode:*grep*, wrap around:*false*,
backwards:*false*, case sensitive:*true*, match words:*false*, extend
selection:*true*, returning results:*true*})
That works just fine (it's inside a tell BBEdit block). In version 11 I was
using *text window* 1 instead, which also worked fine. I'm not clear why I
ran into problems with that in version 12, but at least I have code that
works.
Thanks for replying.
