Re: Grateful for BBEdit

2024-06-12 Thread James Reynolds

I'm jumping on the bandwagon. Several years ago I tried to switch to Linux but 
couldn't because I couldn't live without... BBEdit. And I'm pretty sure I only 
use a fraction of the features. I've just figured out how to use some unique 
features in unusual ways that make me hyper productive (IMO anyway).

Re: Jupyter Notebooks

2024-05-17 Thread James Reynolds

I should clarify, the reason why I am hoping for Jupyter notebook support is 
because these ipynb files are only editable by opening JupyterLab. Even VSCode 
requires JupyterLab to be running I think. It's kind of a pain.

Re: Jupyter Notebooks

2024-05-15 Thread James Reynolds

I use the Notes feature of BBEdit and I'm grateful for it so that I don't have 
dozens of Untitled Text documents all over. But the Python Notebook format is a 
JSON file with a list of "cells". Each cell can be code or markdown. You can 
run the code in the editor by just pressing modkey+return. The results are 
shown directly below the cell.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c3I3SNOA-dQ

Jupyter Notebooks are used heavily by the AI community. I don't know the 
history so I could totally be wrong about this, but I *think* this happened 
because AI educators (at universities) used Jupyter Notebooks to teach because 
you could mix the markdown that explains the code with the actual code and the 
ability to run it, so the instructors didn't need to make slides, the just made 
Notebooks. You can also run Jupyter Notebooks on the cloud easily and so I know 
Google Colab uses Jupyter Notebooks.

Mixing Markdown/HTML cells with code would probably require a lot of changes in 
BBEdit, which is why I am 99% sure the answer to my question would be no.

Re: How to visualise/ preview a PHP homepage in BBEdit?

2024-03-11 Thread James Reynolds

Omar,
If you are accessing your php file using Safari and http://127.0.0.1:8000/, 
that means you are running a web server. Your web server will have a DOCROOT or 
DocumentRoot directory. This directory maps It is probably 
/Users/okn/phpfolder/. If /Users/okn/phpfolder/ is your DOCROOT, then 
http://127.0.0.1:8000/ will look for /Users/okn/phpfolder/index.html (or 
index.php). Because /Users/okn/SitesMacHD isn't in your DOCROOT, your web 
server wont show it. This is to prevent people from looking at things like your 
private files. You'd have to put rrue_e.php inside of your DOCROOT.

Re: How to visualise/ preview a PHP homepage in BBEdit?

2024-03-11 Thread James Reynolds

Omar,
It isn't that your question is difficult to answer. I was a music student 
decades ago and I asked a somewhat famous (in my neck of the woods) organist if 
she could give me organ lessons. I wasn't a pianist. She told me to learn piano 
first and then ask her for lessons. I was pretty put off by it because she came 
off as pretty rude but I understand why she did it. I hope I'm not coming 
across as rude now.

Someone on this list might have the time to walk you through the steps but I 
don't. I also didn't want to just leave you hanging so I wanted to say 
something in case nobody responds. I think if you go watch some tutorials and 
read some webpages and you still can't figure it out, I'm pretty sure many 
people, including myself, would be happy to help you out. 

Here's a little help. The '>>' in `(echo; echo 'eval "$(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew 
shellenv)"') >> /Users/okn/.zprofile` will create /Users/okn/.zprofile. View 
the file by typing `cat /Users/okn/.zprofile` and make sure `eval 
"$(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)"` is at the end of the file. Then open a 
new Terminal window and php should be in your PATH.

Again, I'd go watch some videos and read as much as you can until everything I 
just said makes sense to you.

Re: Is there an AI coding extension / plugin for BBEdit?

2024-03-11 Thread James Reynolds

Greg,
AFAIK, OpenAI is the only vendor BBEdit works with at the moment unless you 
want to run a local AI model. I'm hoping Bare Bones will add the ability to 
specify a custom URL for the AI API.

This is how you run a local AI model with a shell worksheet (assuming you've 
got it installed already).

llama.cpp -m /Users/james/Downloads/dolphin-2.6-mistral-7b-dpo-laser.Q6_K.gguf 
-i --interactive-first 

 (skipped lots of output)

Hello Llama. <- my prompt

v--- The AI's reply...

I'm going to tell you a story about a magical llama that could transform into a 
superhero named "Llamanator." The story is set in the mystical land of 
Llamaville, where all the animals lived happily together and shared their gifts 
with each other.

One day, as the sun began to set over Llamaville, an evil sorcerer named 
Wraiththorn arrived with his army of monstrous creatures. He had come to steal 
the magic jewels that protected the village from harm.

...

You probably don't have brew's install path in your terminal path. If you have 
no idea what this means you probably need to learn a bit more about developing 
with the Terminal. Just search YouTube for "macos terminal tutorial" and 
"getting started with php macos". There's tons of webpages on this too.

Re: Most BBEdit-like Terminal Editor ??

2024-02-27 Thread James Reynolds

Micro is a modern terminal-based text editor. Uses mouse and all the other 
normal keyboard shortcuts for save, copy, paste, etc., except it uses the ctrl 
key instead of cmd. It supports split screen, terminal emulator, syntax 
coloring, multiple cursors, Lua plugins, etc. It's a single binary to download.

Re: BBEdit Environment for html

2024-01-24 Thread James Reynolds

I've used Docker and containers. It can be a pain and probably not worth it if 
you don't understand Docker well.

The guy who made Homebrew has made another package manager that fixes a lot of 
Homebrew's problems: https://pkgx.sh. For example, pkgx is really easy to 
uninstall, you just `rm -r` it's directory. It's all self contained. I haven't 
tried the pkgx version of php but it should work and if it doesn't they'll fix 
it if you submit an issue. And they're pretty responsive, sometimes fixing 
things within an hour.

Wow. I made a big long email saying that Shell Worksheets weren't interactive, 
and then I thought, what if I pressed control-return when it was waiting for 
user input? And it worked! It's not as nice as the ChatGPT worksheet, but it's 
still fun to play with and easier to work with than the Terminal, that's for 
sure.


```
llama.cpp  -m /Users/james/Downloads/dolphin-2.6-mistral-7b-dpo-laser.Q6_K.gguf 
-i --interactive-first
*SKIPPING PAGES OF DEBUGGING OUTPUT*

You are an unhelpful AI assistant. You will answer briefly when asked 
questions. Sometimes you wont answer the question but you will tell the user 
random facts about space. Here is the first question.\
\
Question: Who was the first president of the United States of America?

Unhelpful but entertaining response: Did you know that there are over 200 
billion stars in our galaxy, the Milky Way? That's more than enough to create a 
unique night sky for each person on Earth! Now let me remind you... The first 
president of the United States was George Washington.
```

If you have an m-series Mac, you can do this. Llama.cpp comes from here: 
https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp. In this case my llama.cpp is in 
/usr/local/bin and points to the `main` binary in the llama.cpp project. I got 
the model from here: 
https://huggingface.co/TheBloke/dolphin-2.6-mistral-7B-dpo-laser-GGUF/tree/main.

One note. It looks like the default cwd is /. When I ran llama.cpp that way I 
got really strange output. I had to `cd ~` to fix it. Here's the weird output.

Re: ChatGPT worksheet contexts

2024-01-16 Thread James Reynolds

>> There's not currently a mechanism for adding (or specifying, or changing) 
>> context. If this is important to you, please let us know via email to 
>> "supp...@barebones.com".

So is the entire worksheet sent, the line the cursor is on, or the selected 
text?

> For some cases my description has taken multiple paragraphs, and often the 
> first answer misses something so I refer back or re-state and query again.

It would be amazing to be able to play with the entire context. Several months 
ago when I was playing with AI a lot, I found one app that allowed me to "fix" 
the AI response by editing it and then sending the "fixed" response with my new 
question. With the censored AI models, this often allowed me to bypass the 
censorship by removing the "As an AI language model..." text and replacing it 
with the actual answer. This fooled the AI into continuing to talk about 
building bombs. Of course, I only did this to see if I could because I could 
just Google how to build a bomb if I really wanted to. But my point is that 
being able to edit the full context is useful.

In fact, this could be a powerhouse AI tool if worked with local open source AI 
models and could be configured with chat templates (see 
https://docs.mistral.ai/models/). For example, that link shows that Mistral's 
chat template is as follows (I'm not even sure how to use this template, I just 
know this is Mistral's).

```
[INST] Instruction [/INST] Model answer[INST] Follow-up instruction 
[/INST]
```

Obviously, as a text editor, BBEdit wouldn't do anything other than put that 
text in the window so that the user could then edit it how they wanted. I'm not 
sure that this is really a path that should be pursued though because they're 
starting to make mixed AI models that can do audio, images, and text and I 
don't see how BBEdit would do audio (images are just paths to the files). I 
guess as just a text editor it would be nice to have a local copy of the chats 
rather than having them all stored on OpenAI's server or having them be 
ephemeral, which is the case when using AI cli apps.

Which also makes me think that if you're going to support local AI models you 
might want to have more preferences than just the url to the API. You might 
want to run them from a cli tool like llama.cpp or ollama, which would mean 
you'd need to be able to change the cli flags passed to the tools. This is 
probably a good reason to not support local AI models or anything via cli since 
it just means bloat and losing focus.

I don't think I was clear in my request. By "OpenAI API" I meant using a 
product other than OpenAI, which would require a custom URL pointing to the

Just for completeness, I decided to make a version that didn't require sorted 
lines.

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use strict;

my $buckets = {};
while (<>) {
if ( not defined $buckets->{$_} ) {
$buckets->{$_} = 1;
} else {
$buckets->{$_}++;
}
}
for my $key ( sort keys %$buckets ) {

Re: Process Duplicate Lines and count them

2022-07-26 Thread James Reynolds

Thank you! Although I didn't use your solution, trying to get it to work the 
way I wanted led me down a rabbit hole until I finally came up with this text 
filter (it's been a long time since I've written AppleScript.)

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use strict;

my $bucket;
my $counter;
while (<>) {
if ( not defined $bucket ) {
$bucket = $_;
$counter = 1;
} elsif ( $_ ne $bucket ) {
print "$counter $bucket";
$counter = 1;
$bucket = $_;
} else {
$counter++;
}
}
print "$counter $bucket\n";

Thanks again!

Process Duplicate Lines and count them

2022-07-20 Thread James Reynolds

I use the Process Duplicate Lines feature a lot and I'm discovering I'm trying 
to count them more and more. Does anyone know if there is a way to remove 
duplicate lines and put the number of lines that were removed next to them?

Small feature request

2022-07-11 Thread James Reynolds

One thing that really confuses me when I have a folder open in BBEdit is 
that the "Project" sidebar highlights files that aren't currently 
displayed in the editor. I used to think this was a bug but I've finally 
realized that the "Currently Open Documents" is the true reflection of 
what's shown in the editor. It would be nice if the "Project" sidebar 
removes highlighting a file when that file is no longer shown in the 
editor. It would also be nice if the "Currently Open Documents" panel 
could be dragged above the "Projects" panel.

Re: Using BBEdit for markdown presentation?

2021-04-20 Thread James Reynolds

Ok, I've got to say this. The original WorldWideWeb (Nexus) browser from 1990 
had the ability to edit, link, and browse documents. And didn't HyperCard have 
this functionality too? Basically a rich text editor, browser, and note 
organizer? The internet is massive now but I think the original purpose behind 
the whole thing was kind of lost. I mean, I don't know of anything that really 
has this functionality that is targeted for power users and works rock solid. 
I've never used Evernote. Maybe it can do it? It is hard for me to buy into it, 
especially if it locks me into their product. Maybe this broke down because 
nobody could decide what the best editor was (we still have vi) and well, 
Netscape vs Microsoft and now Google.

Re: Using BBEdit for markdown presentation?

2021-04-20 Thread James Reynolds

I've been watching this thread and because someone mentioned Joplin I tried it 
out. I'm having so many problems with it I'm afraid of using it now. It is 
constantly losing the undo history. When I performed an undo, it wouldn't zoom 
to the location that was undid so I had to copy the before and after text out 
of Joplin and put it in BBEdit to do diff to see what changed! I even set 
BBEdit to the external editor and tried working exclusively that way but if I 
did anything in Joplin at all it was just a huge liability. I can't even see 
the point of using it now. I have to reread my entire document now because I 
don't know what Joplin has done to my document.

I think BBEdit has spoiled me because it has so many rock solid less-popular 
features that I've used to work faster and be more productive but they don't 
transfer to other text editors. And in this case I've learned to use undo and 
redo to do maybe crazy things like navigate around my document and when I tried 
it in Joplin it actually put my document in peril.

I'll just add the only reason I tried Joplin is because I want something that 
is like Apple's Notes but with Markdown, synchronizes to a cloud of my 
choosing, and it runs on macOS, iOS, and Linux . It looked like Joplin had all 
of those things. But yeah, I don't think it's going to work out. I'm wondering 
if replacing Apple Notes is also the goal of the person who started this thread.

Re: Sorting transcripts

2021-03-11 Thread James Reynolds

When I do something like this I usually get rid of the returns by searching for 
"\n" or "\r" and replacing it with garbage text like asdf. Then I would search 
for "[" and replace it with "\n[". Then sort. Then replace "asdf" with "\r". 
You'll be back to where you started but everything will be sorted.

Can BBEdit format code like it formats HTML?

2020-09-18 Thread James Reynolds

I know BBEdit has an HTML formatter. Can it also format code? Like what 
https://beautifier.io/ does for JavaScript?

I guess code folding will work. Thanks.

Re: Pinning finding differences in a large file, bad html highlighting?

2020-08-23 Thread James Reynolds

Oh man, block comments are a no brainer. I feel so dumb now. Thank you! That's 
exactly the type of tip I was hoping for! Lua does have them.

For what it's worth, the difference engine in BBEdit is something I've learned 
to live on and I can't find any application that does anything as good as it 
(I've looked so I can have something on Linux). I've become so dependent on it 
that it's kind of forcing me to keep using the Mac platform.

Pinning finding differences in a large file, bad html highlighting?

2020-08-22 Thread James Reynolds

I have 2 questions. I have a very large Lua file. I duplicated it and 
commented most of it out. Then I made some changes. I am trying to find the 
changes between the 2 documents but the difference engine keeps gobbling up 
more on one side than the other and then the comparison is useless because 
it's no longer in sync. This seems to happen most when one side has lines 
with just new lines and the other side has a comment "--". Is it possible 
to tell BBEdit to pin text in both documents at certain places so that no 
matter what the text is on either side, it will restart it's comparison at 
that point? Or is there some other way to manipulate how it's comparing 
things?

Second, it would be so nice if a text editor showed when an html tag was 
not correct, like
. If the last one was highlighted in red or 
something it would be great. Is this possible now?
