Hello David,
Here is a Text Filter that might work.
Copy and paste the following into a file. ( Starting with the ‘#' and ending
with the last ‘}’ )
#!/usr/bin/env awk -f
BEGIN {
RS = "#Start#"
ORS = ""
FS = "\n"
OFS = "\n"
}
{
sub( /[0-9]+/, NR , $2 )
print "#Start#" $0
}
Name it something like ’Set Chapter Num.awk’ and save it to
'~/Library/Application Support/BBEdit/Text Filters'.
Then open the file you want to edit and run the script from the ’Text > Apply
Text Filter’.
Hope it works.
