Hey Dante,

You can do that like this:


tell application "BBEdit"
    tell front text window
        delete line 9
        delete line 7
        delete line 3
    end tell
end tell


Or like this:


tell application "BBEdit"
    tell front text window
        delete line 3
        delete line (7 - 1)
        delete line (9 - 2)
    end tell
end tell


Or you can use a text filter like this:

#!/usr/bin/env bash

sed '
    3d
    7d
    9d
'

The text filter is a bit more efficient, because it does everything at once – 
and therefore undo is only 1 step instead of 3.
