Thanks Andy! 
The TextEdit script works great. The BBEdit reports that it can't open a
new window. I have BBEdit Lite 6.1.2 for Mac OS X, maybe that command was
added in a later version. But, hey, one that works is all I need! :-) 

And yeah, there was a lot more hidden in that message than met the eye!  =:-0

Best,
