Hi all, Vittorio Barabino and I just released MacScripter's Magazine no. 4, part of which is dedicated to Regular expressions ("grep"). The fourth issue comes with a big bonus: the Muncher. It is an interface for AppleScript. Just drag a text onto his helplet and the text is processed automatically. The (fully functional) demo of the Muncher in the magazine will - remove HTML tags from an HTML document and count the number of hyperlinks, and - extract e-mail and Web addresses from a text. With a helplet on your desktop, you can be much more productive! Although I was able to make a separate version for BBEdit users (no 32 kB limit), I had some problems getting MacPerl and AS to work together although I made some progress. If someone is interested in starting where I ran into trouble, I'm happy to send the file. You can download MSM 4 (including the helplets) from: http://macscripter.net/magazine.html http://www.macinstruct.com Hope you like it. Bye for now, Bert
