Re: Clarifications about Sharing Application Support Preferences Data via Dropbox
I don't have Dropbox in the root of my home directory. I've got it sitting in my Documents directory. So in my case the path ~/Documents/ Dropbox/Application Support/BBEdit/ doesn't seem to work.

It *should* work for non-default locations, but since Dropbox doesn't offer a supported means of determining whether the Dropbox folder is, BBEdit has to read its settings directly, and the Dropbox settings format may have changed in an incompatible way.

Edit both start and closing HTML tags at once?
Hi, I am new to BBedit, testing the demo version currently. I was wondering if it's possible to edit both start and closing HTML tags at once, for example transforming something like p class=fooLorem ipsum/p into div class=fooLorem ipsum/div. Any ideas? This would be a useful addition to the Edit Markup command, which (as far as I can tell) only allows changing tag attributes, but cannot rename the tag itself.

[ANN] BBEdit 10.0.2 (3077) pre-release
Good { morning, afternoon, evening }, The announcement of a pre-release version on the list may come as a surprise to some of you. :-) When preparing maintenance updates (which primarily consist of bug fixes, with few to no new features), we're going to post notification of the new versions to this list, so that anyone who's interested can take the new build for a spin. Note that these are _pre-release_ versions. The intent is to fix bugs and address areas of improvement based on what our customers have reported. However, since the software is at this point not fully tested, there _may_ be bugs and regressions. If this prospect makes you nervous, then sticking with the public release versions is your best course of action. Nobody will be offended if you choose to do so; you're under no obligation to install and use anything but a public release. :-) Following is a summary of the changes in the software since the last public release. The change notes are organized into additions, changes, and fixes, and are annotated where appropriate with case numbers. So if you recognize a number corresponding to a support case that was opened for you, you can now verify that it's been fixed correctly. One final note: If you run into a bug in a pre-release version, PLEASE DO NOT REPORT THE BUG TO THE LIST. This includes asking about whether others have seen the same problem. Instead, please send a bug report to supp...@barebones.com and we will deal with it there. This will help us keep the list discussion on topic and productive for all list members. version 10.0.2 (3077) (8/22/2011) Additions - o (none in this build) Changes --- o (none in this build) Fixes - * [213323, 216590] Fixed crash which would occur because the Edit Filter button in the text factory options dialog was not disabled when it should have been, allowing an inappropriate operation. * [212755] In addition to the beep when starting with Shift or Option held down, BBEdit will now notify with Growl. - [213895] Fixed a bug in which `\end` commands which close off math-related blocks in TeX documents were not being syntax colored as commands (keywords). - [216672] Fixed a bug in the Ruby Language Module where it was being a little too aggressively lazy in looking for weird operators. So `=`` is now seen as an assignment followed by the opening delim of a type of string token, rather than some Frankendelimiter. (As if Ruby would allow you to have weird delimiters...) * [214387] Fixed bug in which documents would open but fail to show the insertion point (or would show the insertion point but not accept typing) in situations where `Editor_AlwaysOpenQuickFind` was turned on. * Fixed bug in which hiding the file view while it had keyboard focus would leave the focus in the Quick Find box if it was visible, rather than in the edit view. * [216287] Differences lists no longer have a horizontal scrollbar. * Fixed bug in which expanding a folder in a project window's file list didn't put close widgets in the items corresponding to open documents. * [216736, 216745] Fixed bug in which conflicts were not detected when assigning a keyboard equivalent for a script/filter/etc in the Menus Shortcuts preferences. * [216721, 216744] [NFR] Fixed regression in which Save a Copy reported an error instead of functioning as intended. =end= The package can be downloaded from our web server: http://pine.barebones.com/seeding/bbedit-1002_3077.dmg Enjoy, R. -- Rich Siegel Bare Bones Software, Inc. sie...@barebones.com http://www.barebones.com/ Someday I'll look back on all this and laugh... until they sedate me. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the BBEdit Talk discussion group on Google Groups.

Re: Scripting search/replace
After looking through the BBEdit script library, I realize the problem is that the 'replace' actually returns an integer that represents the number of instances of the pattern changed, and not the changed string. I know it seems silly, but given this, and the way that Clippings work, I think I'll have to fudge this so that the applescript does the replace on the selection, then copies the modified selection and returns it to the clipping, so the clipping can insert it... seems kind of round-about, but I really want to keep all this within the clipping set. Anyways, this is an applescript question and not a BBEdit question, so I'll take the discussion to a more appropriate forum. tty, v On Aug 20, 7:27 pm, verdonv verd...@verdon.ca wrote: Yes, that's the sort of direction I was trying to go with the 'as alias' thing...

I like the simpler pattern too :-) __ Hey Verdon, You bet. As to why I am activating it from a clipping, well because it is part of a bigger set of clippings. Clippings are the sensible method for most of the set. This one is the oddball, but I want to keep everything together in one toolbox, so to speak. If I understand the clipping/script mechanism correctly the script must return a text value, which the clipping will emplace. The trouble is that your script acts on the selection, and then the clipping wants to change the selection again to the output of the script. I was going to say that you could go ahead and get the selection after the replace and return it, but there's some funky issue with whitespace getting eaten. -- Best Regards, Chris -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the BBEdit Talk discussion group on Google Groups.
