Me either. It could be just a weird copy-paste thing. Try typing it in by
hand, or maybe it's the more recent version of BBEdit? For that, use
command-shift-O to open BBEdit's dictionary in the script editor and make
sure those properties are still there. Meanwhile, this works for me:
*tell* *application* "BBEdit"
*set* PREV_SEARCH_STRING *to* current search strings
*set* PREV_SEARCH_STRING *to* search string *of* PREV_SEARCH_STRING
*set* theChoice *to* *display dialog* "Search current document for:"
default answer PREV_SEARCH_STRING
*if* button returned *of* theChoice *is* "OK" *then*
*set* searchOpt *to* {starting at top:*true*}
*tell* *window* 1
*set* findRes *to* *find* text returned *of*
theChoice options searchOpt *with* selecting match
*if* findRes's found *is* *false* *then* *beep*
*set* search string *of* current search strings *to*
findRes
*end* *tell*
*end* *if*
*end* *tell*
For some reason BBEdit doesn't remember the search string if you change it
in the dialog.
