Grail raises an excellent point: by default the bbedit command will turn immediately. This causes some confusion with some command line tools, which expect the editor command to quit only after the user has saved and quit their writing. In English, most command line tools expect to fire off the editor, and expect to hear back from the user when they are done editing. Instead, what the bbedit command does (by default) is to open the file in BBEdit then return immediately. So, the bbedit tool is written to behave like: Ok, I have displayed the file to the user, my job is done. Where as most command line tools expect the editor's job to be done when the user saves + closes the document in question. Here's the line from my own unix config: export EDITOR=~/bin/bb My ~/bin/bb script looks like this: #!/bin/sh # Information for this script comes from: # http://superuser.com/questions/383124/knowing-user-is-sshing-in-from-a-shell-script if [[ $SSH_CONNECTION ]] then vim $@ else bbedit -w $@ fi This script says, If the user is SSHing in right now, use vim as the editor. Else use BBEdit and wait around until the user closes the document in question. Why the check about SSH connections? I sometimes SSH into my main OS X machine using a Linux netbook. If I need to edit a file I don't want to launch BBEdit because I have no way of editing the text then because I'm not in front of OS X right now.

Howdy list folk, The other day I released a BBEdit package for using Git with BBEdit. (https://github.com/rwilcox/git.bbpackage). Those of you who don't subscribe to @bbedit_hints on Twitter might have missed the announcement, but that's OK.. ... because I have something of general interest to the community: a BBEdit package to help you edit HTML in BBEdit. (https://github.com/ rwilcox/html.bbpackage) But Ryan, BBEdit already has a bunch of tools for editing HTML in BBEdit? There's that whole Markup menu!?! Yes, absolutely. BBEdit has great tools built-in, but as a community we have some really good tools too. For example, the HTML bbpackage includes the JSLint syntax checking Applescript that everyone uses. It also includes some tools I've written myself. For example, do you have a bunch of JSON, and can't read it because it's been minified? I have a text filter for that... There are a few other tools in the package right now, but I *know* some of you guys have been writing HTML in BBEdit since '95. I would happily welcome any contribution to this package!

ANN: BBEdit (Rails) Workflow Screencast #2
Great news everyone, I've posted another BBEdit (Rails) Workflow screencast to Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G4HPukpaISk Like the last one, it's less Rails specific and more I'm doing development on BBEdit, from TextMate, now how do I make myself productive with BBEdit?... with common Rails problems in the background. (A common Rails problem being, for example, I have so. many. files. open... where did that one I want get to?!) I'm also making this an approximately weekly thing. Given the new, weekly, bent, I'm going to avoid spamming this list with further announcement emails like this one. As a heads up: the next 3 or so screencasts will be about some very Rails specific tools I've developed for BBEdit, but then will lighten back up into general BBEdit topics. If you're interested in these screencasts, subscribe to my Youtube Channel (http://www.youtube.com/user/BrotherAias) (RSS feed available) to keep informed of the latest screencasts. You could also follow me (in my BBEdit Hints persona) on twitter (http://www.twitter.com/bbedit_hints) where I tweet hints (about 1-2 a day), and I'll (of course) tweet when I have released a new screencast on there. I might set up an announcement mailing list or something if there's demand. So if you don't like Twitter and never go to Youtube, but are interested, let me know off list and I'll think of something :) (You're certainly welcome to follow me personally, @rwilcox, mostly on Rails development, gripes, and how sometimes my world devolves into an episode from M*A*S*H.

It's a few little things I've discovered, tweaks from the base workflow, and includes some tricks to make Rails and TextMate developers more at home in BBEdit 10.

Domain Specific Languages (Specifically Ruby/Ruby on Rails specific) in BBEdit
Greetings list. First time poster, long time BBEdit user here. Today I found myself in BBEdit, editing 4 very long Ruby on Rails files. This worked well until I had to navigate around in those files. You see, these files were written using a Domain Specific Language, on top of Ruby, called Shoulda[1], which gives us an easy way to test RoR apps. Shoulda files look like this: context As a user trying to log into the system, I should be able to access the home page do # some kind of test here end should have my username and password accepted do # and more tests end end Now imagine 1,000 lines of that, because neither the context nor the should lines show up in the BBEdit function popup. And why should they? Functions in Ruby start with def, not should but Shoulda So it was a little hard to navigate. So I started thinking, and ended up writing a Python script to make it easier to navigate Shoulda files. You can see my work at: http:// bitbucket.org/rwilcox/bbedit_dsl/ Ultimately this is a proof of concept script - I need to be able to support other DSLs, and I'd like to be able to handle user specific ones (maybe someone else writes an RSpec version (another Domain Specific Language on top of BBEdit), for example). However, I thought I'd get the word out there, and see if the wider community was interested.
