Find Differences between two folders showing all files

[Lee Hinde]

Doing a Find Differences between two folders. The results show all files, 
even though I do not have "LIst identical files in results" checked.

If I click on a file, it doesn't show any differences. 

Is there another setting I'm missing?

RegEx Challenge, Title Case a column in an CSV File

[Lee Hinde]

I have a CSV file where the 2nd column contains names that are being 
provided all caps. I'd like to title case that column.

First column is a number, always, so:

123,HUMAN RESOURCES,
124,PUBLICATIONS,

I'd like to convert that to:

123,Human Resources,
124,Publications,

Is that doable with RegEx?  A quick google didn't provide anything I 
understood. (low bar)

Grep help

[Lee Hinde]

I've taken over a project and have many many html files with strings like
this:



I want to change all occurrences of a semi-colon within a url to something
else, like .

I started with this search string:

(href=\".*);(.*\"[ ,>])

and this replacement string:

\1\\2

The problem is it is only replacing one of the semi-colons (and oddly, to
me, not the first one) and I'd like to replace all of them.

Pointers would be appreciated.

I just tested 11.5 vs 11.6 and got the same result. in 11.5 you saw the remote 
path, in 11.6 you get the local copy path.

A few tips about 11.6

[Lee Hinde]

A comment by Flash Sheridan (there's a blast from the past) on the Tidbits
notice  about the 11.6 update:

*Flash Sheridan  **2016-07-11 14:28*


A couple of things that didn’t make the release notes:

• Syntax checking no longer puts up a dialog box on success. (This isn’t a
bug so long as you’re aware of the change.)

• Flake8 is really annoying; it even reports as _errors_ spacing it doesn’t
like in Python comments. If you happen to have it installed, there’s no way
to prevent it from taking over the old Check Syntax menu item. I tried to
install a custom configuration file for it (which is inadequately
documented), but that didn’t hush all the insanity, so I ended up having to
move the executable.

• The good news is that if you want to use Flake8 occasionally in its
disabled position, you can now use bbresults on it from the scripts menu:

/usr/local/bin/flake8_OFF "$BB_DOC_PATH" | bbresults --pattern flake8

Getting just the differences.

[Lee Hinde]

I'm doing a Find Differences between two files. I want to copy just the
lines that are different, from both files, into a new document so I can
send that to someone.

Is there a way to do that?

Re: How to open a file (already present in a project window) in an additional window?

[Lee Hinde]

Oddly, (to me) once the document is open, you can move it to a new window
from the Currently Open Documents pane. This pane appears below the
project file list, once there are open files.

Why you can't do that from the file list is probably due to, uhm,
insufficient requests...

 Hey Lee,

 When making these kinds of requests it's always better if you provide an
 actual sample of the data you're working with.

 Just looking at it I could say:

 Find:

 .*(GET /public/search/\?q=(\w|\+|\.|-)+).*

 Replace:

 \1

 But I'd much rather see the data and actually test my solution.

 For that matter this seems like a job for a Perl filter.

Extract string found in line

[Lee Hinde]

I am parsing apache log files. This is the grep pattern I'm using:

GET /public/search/\?q=(\w|\+|\.|-)+

works fine. But I want to extract just the text that matches that string
and lose all the rest of the line.

How would I do that?

 Hey Lee,
 
 This stuff is not well documented in the manual (that I can find).
 
 This works and produces a FTP Browser Window.  Unfortunately you cannot speak 
 to the window once it's open.
 
 ---
 
 tell application BBEdit
   activate
   make new FTP browser window
 end tell
 
 ---
 
 You would expect to be able to do something like this, but you can't.
 
 ---
 
 set theURL to ftp://yourdomain.com;
 set userName to yourUserName
 set thePassword to yourPassword
 
 tell application BBEdit
   activate
   make new FTP browser window with properties {server:theURL, 
 user:userName, password:thePassword}
 end tell
 
 ---
 
 This is what actually works to open a FTP browser window to your desired 
 location:
 
 ---
 
 tell application BBEdit
   open location ftp://username:passw...@yourdomain.com:21/;
 end tell
 
 ---
 
 You can do the same thing using the command line tool:
 
 bbedit 'ftp://username:passw...@yourdomain.com:21/'

 I'm trying to learn Python. I have a book that is helping me along. I'd 
 like to use BBEdit as my editor, but I'm having some issues. Part of this 
 is an Apple/Fink thing. Part of the problem is that the version of python 
 get if I run using 'python' is old (v2.7.1). If I force paths I can get 
 v2.7.3 or v3.2.3. As near as I can tell, BBEdit uses the version as if I 
 typed 'python' which doesn't work properly with the code in the book. Even 
 if I download the authors copy directly. So I'm trying to find a way to 
 force BBEdit to use a specific version 2.7.3 or 3.2.3 vice the 2.7.1 it 
 keeps preferring. Any ideas?
 
 What's the first line of your script?
 
 It starts with a line with a '#' and the name of the file. Next after that is:
 
 from tkinter import *
 
 Which works under python 3.2 but not in python 2.7 unless I make it Tkinter.
 
 If I do
 $python myscript.py
 It uses 2.7.1.
 
 If I do
 $python2.7 myscript.py
 It uses 2.7.3.
 
 If I do
 $python3.2 myscript.py
 It uses 3.2.3.
 
 If I run it from BBEdit it runs behaves the same as the first example. My 
 script, which is calling for Tk to draw a very basic window, doesn't work 
 under 2.7.1 but does under 2.7.3 and 3.2.3. I can test this from the command 
 line perfectly. What I need is a way to control what BBEdit is using.
 
 If python 2.7.1 rejects the code, then I assume that the code is written for 
 python 3 (which is a sensible version to learn these days).
 
 Nope, works under 2.7.3. And if your statement is true it still doesn't 
 explain how to force BBEdit to use 3.
 
 You can try to set the first line to:
 
 #!/usr/bin/env python3
 
 That looks like bash script, will that work at the beginning of a python 
 script?
 
 Tried it and BBEdit gave me this error:
 env: python3: No such file or directory
 
 If that doesn't work, try to be more specific (open a terminal, and see 
 which versions of python are available, typing python and pressing the 
 tab-key should provide some options).
 
 See above.
 
 As a last resort, you could use the full path to python:
 
 #!/usr/local/bin/python3
 
 No, still getting the same errors (tried forcing 2.7.3 too, no dice).
 
 I'm sure others will provide the correct method for getting BBEdit to 
 recognize your scripts and finding the appropriate interpreter.
 
 I hope so ... :)

Chip
 

try this in terminal:

which python3

then use the resulting path as above.

 I assume you've contacted Barebones support and also David Kocher at 
 Cyberduck about this.
 
 Meanwhile, have you tried any other FTP clients on your machine? Over here I 
 just checked and everything works fine with Fetch -- currently running Fetch 
 5.7.3  BBEdit 10.5.1 on OS X 10.8.2.
 
 Besides Fetch, another seasoned FTP client many on this list swear by is 
 InterArchy. (My only association with Fetch/InterArchy is that I've used them 
 forever.)
 
 Hope you find a solution.

As solutions go, BBEdit works great with Fetch, but Fetch doesn't do s3, which 
Cyberduck does. If you set your external editor to TextMate, the external 
editing in Cyberduck works fine. Many quivers makes a happy archer. Or 
something.

And, BBEdit 3.5, really?

Merry Christmas.

 You know, I really would like to know why it is that people insist on posting

 Bare Bones technical support. I mean, as someone who has to deal with 
 technical support issues myself, I'm quite curious. Is it just a mistrust of 
 the official channels? Is it that people send in reports and get no response 
 and are thus frustrated? Is it just plain ignorance? Is it the fact that the 
 Google Groups facility doesn't make it easy to shove the 'contact technical 
 support' notice in people's faces?
 
 And I wonder whether BB have simply given up and now consider this forum (and 
 the others) as simply an alternative to the tech support e-mail address. I 
 mean, I would be sorely tempted to do so -- at least if any significant 
 fraction of my bug reports came through this channel rather than the 
 recommended one.
 
 Anyway. Just wondering, really.
 

I don't know if it's the motivation, but it helps me in six months when I have 
the same problem and I can google it and find a thread and maybe figure it out 
without bothering anyone else.

Re: Coda 2 is nice, but no match for BBEdit

 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.)

I got confused and bought Capo instead.

The 'comment' commands were consolidated. You're not going crazy. Well, you may 
be going crazy, but this isn't why.

Extra, unneeded, help from Edit Markup

[Lee Hinde]

Let's say I have this html tag:

img src=!--#4dvar [Host]Image_URL-- alt=Host Image /

The !--#4dvar [Host]Image_URL— is the syntax used by my server software to 
insert text.

So, I call up the new (sigh) Edit Markup dialog to add height and width 
attributes.

When I'm done I have this:

img src=lt;!--#4dvar [Host]Image_URL--gt; alt=Host Image width=125 
height=125 /

The Edit Markup dialog does me the favor of breaking the tagging syntax by 
converting my  and  characters.

This is long standing behavior. Is there a way to turn that off?

Re: Replace with newline character

[Lee Hinde]

You can type option-return in the replace box after the semi-colon.

Find: ;
Replace ;
option-return

 literal '\n' in place of a new line, even when I have the grep button
 clicked.
 
 Is there another way to use a new line as a replacement character?

Re: where's my mailto:?

 Any ideas?
 
 Searching this list for mailto: is pointless (it seems to pull up

 Loss of this functionality is enough to make me consider downgrading

Search the archives for anchor tags in v. 10 very inconvenient and look for 
the 10.0.2 pre-releases.

Get a list of files found in a folder differences call

[Lee Hinde]

Hi;

Is there a way to get the list of files that have differences when
using the Find Differences command to compare two folders? I.e., I'd
like the list of files that have differences and the list of files
that exist in one or the other.

Thanks.

symbol list accessible in AppleScript

[Lee Hinde]

Is the symbol list accessible in AppleScript?

For instance, if I have a CSS file open, can I get a list of
attributes that would show up in the symbol list?

Thanks.

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


Thanks. I'd been using the comment button in the html palette. (yes, I

 This AppleScript will switch from BBEdit to TextMate:

 tell application BBEdit

if (modified of active document of window 1) then
save active document of window 1

set mypath to get file of active document of window 1
-- get line number of insertion point

set theline to (startLine of selection)
-- Hope that 'mate' is installed in a location that is in the

do shell script mate +  (theline as string) quoted form
 of

 end tell

 -- end script


I changed the last line as follows: do shell script /usr/local/bin/mate  
 quoted form of (POSIX path of mypath)

Sending the line number just confused TextMate.

Thanks for this!

Looking for BBEdit equiv. to TextMate functions.

[Lee Hinde]

I've just updated to 9.x after sitting out the 8.x series. I've been
using TextMate.

There are two actions/keystrokes that I use frequently with TextMate
and I'm wondering how to do the same in BBEdit.

With the first, I could type something like:

html

and type control-shift-leftarrow and I'll end up with:

html/html

The second keystroke is control-shift-w. It works on selected text, so
if I were to select the following text:

here is some text

and hit the keystroke, i'd end up with:

phere is some text/p

Pointers are appreciated.

Thanks.

 - Lee
