Hi Lorenz,

Execute this snippet of AppleScript with Script Editor:

    tell application "BBEdit"
        set vContents to ""
        repeat with i from 1 to 15
            set vNumber to i as string
            if i < 10 then
                set vNumber to "0" & vNumber
            end if
            set vContents to vContents & "word" & vNumber & linefeed
        end repeat
        make new document with properties {contents:vContents}
    end tell

HTH
