Hey Paul,

Replacing text with AppleScript is easy enough once you know how:

# Auth: Christopher Stone
# dCre: 2021/06/28 21:28
# dMod: 2021/06/28 21:37
# Appl: BBEdit
# Task: Replace Either RegEx or Literal Text in the Designated BBEdit Window.
# Libs: None
# Osax: None
# Tags: @Applescript, @Script, @BBEdit, @Replace, @RegEx, @Literal
---

# Use "Front_Text_Window" to Target the Front Window.
# Otherwise use the Window Name as the targetWindow.

# REMEMBER - The backslash for RegEx metacharacters "\" must be escaped in 
AppleScript "\\".

# Verbose:
set matchStr to "Nyet\\s"
set replaceStr to "Da"
set targetWindow to "Front_Text_Window"
set grepFlag to {|regEx|:true}
bbeditReplaceMatchInTargetWindow(matchStr, replaceStr, targetWindow, grepFlag)

# Less Verbose:
# bbeditReplaceMatchInTargetWindow("Nyet\\s", "Da", "Front_Text_Window", 
{|regEx|:true})

---
--» HANDLERS

on bbeditReplaceMatchInTargetWindow(matchStr, replaceStr, targetWindow, 
grepFlag)

tell application "BBEdit"
if targetWindow = "Front_Text_Window" then
set targetWindowRef to a reference to the front text window
else
set targetWindowRef to a reference to text window targetWindow
end if

if grepFlag's |regEx| = true then
set searchModeType to grep
else
set searchModeType to literal
end if

# Case-Sensitive is OFF by Default – Switch on using (?-i)
tell targetWindowRef's text
replace matchStr using replaceStr options {search 
mode:searchModeType, starting at top:true}
end tell

end tell

end bbeditReplaceMatchInTargetWindow

Sorting lines “within certain parameters” requires more explanation.  Please 
provide real world examples.

I know this may be simple but do not have knowledge or time to 
do this myself.



Since it may be that you don't even need script(s) but could 
instead just create (one or a pair of) text factories, may I 
suggest you provide an example of each task, along with a bit of 
actual data?

Re: Scripts to send command files to Stata/R selected text to Stata

[Steve Samuels]

  There are other scripts around.  For R, see:

 Stata 13 changed its scripting behavior and broke the previous scripts. 
 I've revised them to work with any Stata version.
 The scripts are written for StataMP; if you use a different flavor, 
 substitute its name.  The Send_to_Stata_or_R script
 checks the file extension (do for Stata, R or r for R)  to know 
 which app is the target.

Excellent, I did not know these existed and they will make my R work much

Re: Scripts that report information about selected text?

I would prefer to open a new window and write the results there. Is
there some easy way to do this? From a Python script?


My Python is minimal, but this would be trivial with regular 
expressions in Perl, without even selecting the column beforehand.


But you might be able to do without going outside of BBEdit -- 
are you familiar with Text - Process Lines Containing...  ?

I don't know Python but here's how you could do it in Perl

You have to copy your selection onto the clipboard because the text 
filters read whole lines.  Overwrite the selection, then create a 
file for your results.  Perform your calculations on $clipboard, 
write the results to the new file and open this in BBEdit.


This script multiplies every number in your selected column by 2 and 
displays the results in the doc $tempfile:



#! /usr/bin/perl
use strict;
my $clipboard = `pbpaste`;
my $tempfile = /tmp/temp.txt;
while () {print}
open FH, , $tempfile or die $!;
for (split /[\n\r]/, $clipboard){
  $_ *= 2;
  print FH $_\n;
}
`open -a bbedit $tempfile`;
