Hi All, I have a script, shown below, that allows me to put the cursor on a single line of json and call my script. A terminal window is opened, and the formatted json is shown. I then can copy it out and paste it back into the document.
It works, but it's still a bit of a bother. I'd like the json line in BBEdit to be replaced with the formatted json. No terminal window needed. Currently, the script uses the 'jq' tool from here: https://stedolan.github.io/jq/ ----------Script jqpretty------------------ *tell* *application* "BBEdit" *set* the_selection *to* (selection *of* *front* *window* *as* *string*) *if* (the_selection) *is* "" *then* *set* the_selection *to* *line* (*get* startLine *of* selection) *of* *front* *window* *as* *string* *end* *if* *end* *tell* *tell* *application* "Terminal" *do script* with command "echo '" & the_selection & "' | jq ." in *window* 1 *end* *tell* ---------------------------------------------- Thanks! -Ken -- This is the BBEdit Talk public discussion group.
