There was a post in this group to do this very thing. I can no longer find 
it to credit the creator. However what he posted was to put this code into 
a BBedit file:


#!/usr/bin/env perl -sw
use utf8;

$/ = "\n";
my $cntr = 0;

while (<>) {
   print ++$cntr.". ";
   chomp;
   print;
   print "\n";
}


Save that as YourFilterName.pl to "~/Library/Application 
Support/BBEdit/Text Filters/YourFilterName.pl

***Not sure if a relaunch is necessary but it couldn't hurt.
Open your list and go the Menu Text->Apply Text Filter and select the 
filter you just created.


Again, I did not write this and deserve no credit and wish I could find the 
thread were I got this from so as to properly credit the person who did 
write it.
