But you might be interest in these options. https://nathangrigg.com/2012/09/bbedit-grammar-highlighting <https://nathangrigg.com/2012/09/bbedit-grammar-highlighting> http://www.macdrifter.com/2012/01/custom-grammar-checker-in-bbedit.html I found these links in this articles(blog post). http://storiesandnovels.com/bbedit/ This is an interesting writing tool/project. http://proselint.com <http://proselint.com/> I did a down and dirty implementation into BBEdit by putting this script into '/Users/chris/Library/Application Support/BBEdit/Scripts/' . Check Prose.rb -------------------------------------------------------------------------- #!/usr/bin/env ruby doc = ENV[ 'BB_DOC_PATH' ] `osascript -e 'tell application "BBEdit" to tell text document 1 to save'` `which proselint` if $?.success? exec "proselint '#{doc}' | bbresults" else abort "You might need to install proselint.\nhttp://https://github.com/amperser/proselint/\nhttp://proselint.com\n$ brew install proselint" end -------------------------------------------------------------------------- I know it isn’t what you are looking for but maybe you will find some of this useful. — Chris(topher)? -- This is the BBEdit Talk public discussion group.
