I was wondering whether BBedit had an easy way to batch link multiple URLs
in a text. I did find an old thread on how to create on the topic dating
from 2011 but they mainly suggested using GREP. The suggestions worked but
were not "easy."

We run a quarterly academic journal, which always has 20-50 references that
need to be linked. MS Word has no easy way to create them except manually
by hitting <enter> at the end of each link.

Here's the easy way.  Copy the entire text into the message box of a fresh
Google mail. Close the mail and open it again. All of the URLs will now be
linked. You can now copy the text with formatting intact back into the
original document.

I hope some of you find this useful!

Cheers,
