Color Scheme Creation

[Oliver Taylor]

Is there a file somewhere out there that contains every kind of string, 
keyword, etc. that can be colored in BBEdit? I often want to tweak color 
schemes and find myself pasting in bits of code here and there to see how 
the scheme looks as a whole. Anyone have this built already?

Re: GREP: Replace variable string with title case or leave unchanged?

[Be]

Sorry about the delay in responding.

Your explanation is really helpful. I'm under the gun right now to complete 
a project, but as soon as I'm done, I'll learn enough Perl to implement 
this. It's something I need to do anyway.

Thanks so much for taking the time to go through it step-by-step. These 
real-world examples are the best way to learn a new language, IMHO.

Maybe I'll learn enough to pay it forward!  :)

Well Capo is undeniably better than BBEdit at helping you learn guitar solos.

Using a (Persistent Include) variable in several includes and site-wide?

[Martin Post]

Hello guys,

I am maintaining several smaller, static web sites using BBEdit. I have 
defined fairly large chunks of HTML (page headers, footers, main and sub 
navigation etc.) as persistent includes, and I use variables to customize 
these. It's a simple, flexible setup.

Now here are two problems/questions:

- I'd like to use one variable in *several* includes on the same page - ie, 
I want to define eg #BB_TITLE#="Foo" and use this in several includes 
(header, footer). Is this possible? How?

- Same question for site-wide variables. It would be awesome if I could 
define a few variables somewhere (ie, not on page level) and have their 
values injected into all pages/persistent includes where that variable is 
used.

Is there a way to do this client-side, using BBEdit, or would I have to do 
this server-side (eg via PHP)?

Thanks in advance!

Re: Delete to end of document script

[Lalock]

Your script worked perfectly, Chris! Thank you so much, and everyone
else for the advice. And Fletcher, this script will have to run
through about 50 text files a day that have been exported from a FMP
database, so hands off is exactly what I wanted.

Again, THANK YOU! You guys rock!

Coda 2 is nice, but no match for BBEdit

[Martin Post]

This is not strictly BBEdit related, but may be relevant to some HTML & CSS 
coders here anyway.

There was a lot of excitement around Coda 2 during the last days, and I 
gave into the hype and bought it today from the App Store at the reduced 
price, although I maintain all my sites in BBEdit. I was curious enough to 
spend 40 EUR.

Long story short: It's a nice app. The GUI is beautiful, the reference docs 
are a welcome addition. But in terms of features - especially with regards 
to site management -, even Coda 2 doesn't hold a candle to BBEdit. Includes 
alone (which can be updated and fine-tuned using variables) are something I 
couldn't live/work without – Coda's snippets are not really an adequate 
replacement. Same goes for fine-tuned RegEx search/replace, collections, 
the markup editor, "Process Lines containing" etc. I would love to see a 
Transmit-style "Sync site" feature in BBEdit, but that's about the only 
feature I really need a third-party app for.

I guess I will use Coda here and there for a small project, but for 
everything else, I'll stick with BBEdit.

(All this is not supposed to badmouth a competitor, but it might save some 
people some money.)

Hey There,

Part of the problem is that you're not working from a selection.  You don't 
have with selecting match in your find specification.

Take a look at this and see if it's close to what you're trying to do.

set theFile to alias "Thor:Users:chris:test_directory:test.txt"
tell application "BBEdit"
activate
open theFile opening in new_window
tell text of text document 1
replace "°°" using "\\r" options {search mode:literal, starting 
at top:true, wrap around:false, backwards:false, case sensitive:false, match 
words:false, extend selection:false}
set find_results to find "\\r@rule:" options {search mode:grep, 
starting at top:false, wrap around:true, backwards:false, case sensitive:false, 
match words:false, extend selection:false}
delete (characters (get characterOffset of (found object of 
find_results)) thru -1)
end tell
end tell

Chris
