I write code in Lasso, and use the Un/Comment, but it uses the wrong
style of commenting: 

In Preferences > Languages > Installed Languages > Options... >
General

Comment Start: /*
Comment End: */

What am I missing?

I'm writing from my phone, but to echo many of the things said:
Hotkey the un/comment command
Set open the HTML an CSA palettes
Use projects to manage your files for easiest access

If you really liked autocompletes in textmate you may not be as
pleased in bbedit; but it's still very usable and can be customized to
your likes.

I couple it with transmit for FTP when not on version control.

You won't look back- it's a tremendous tool.

Re: how do I search through text without finding text from previous search

2008-11-09 Thread John Mosby

GOT IT!!

It seems all I need is the following code after my search line

with selecting match

So the new line of code is...

set zFindResult to find searchStr options {search mode:grep,
returning results:true, starting at top:false, showing results:false}
searching in text 1 of text window 1 with selecting match

Thanks. I'd been using the comment button in the html palette. (yes, I
know it's an 'html' palette, but a guy can hope, right?)

Re: how do I search through text without finding text from previous search

2008-11-09 Thread John Mosby

My problem seems to be that after I find the text using the line...

set zFindResult to find searchStr options {search mode:grep,
returning results:true, starting at top:false, showing results:false}
searching in text 1 of text window 1


that the line below does not set the insertion point after the found
text, like I was expecting.  That way the next search would begin at
the new inserstion point.  Apparrantly, the insertion point is staying
constantly in the same place.  How can I modify the search or the
insertion point to move through the text I am searching?  Thanks.


                  select insertion point after selection of text
window 1

When I reinstall BBEdit on a new machine, the first thing I do is
remap Un/Comment to command-shift-c. :-)

The "Un/Comment..." command on the Text menu in BBEdit does language  
aware un/commenting.

You can assign a keyboard equivalent to it view Preferences -> Menus.

I've commented before, but to jump in here...

Since 9.x has shipped I've started using BBEdit for most of my
javascript editing and project searching. I use TextMate for html
editing (tag completion and code completion are just done, no
configuring necessary, although you can of course. I see comments
about ctags and through no fault of anyones, I feel like, that's
scratching an itch that's already scratched.) I can keep my hands on
the keyboard. Commenting is one example. Command-/ comments text and
TextMate is smart enough to figure out what kind of comment I need.
Even if I'm in an html doc and I'm commenting some in-line javascript
or css, TM does the right thing.

TextMate's bundle system is quite nice too. The one thing I still use
TextMate for with javascript is running a javascript lint review on my
js files.

BBedit kicks butt for file/project searching and diffs.

Thanks for the review. I opted to take the plunge and purchase BBedit,  
I've been comparing features and usage between BBedit and textmate and  
found BBedit has a lot more going for it :)
