BBEdit doesn't find text in Word headers and footers

2010-01-22 Thread Karen B
I work with a client that insists that a certain group of forms must be done in Microsoft Word. They update headers frequently. I was looking for something that will search through all the forms to find ones containing outdated headers. I have tried File Buddy and Speed Search. The problem with

Thanks for the clarification Jim. It's good to know that BBEdit sticks to the standard on this kind of thing and encourages good practices. I use BBEdit to deal with other people's code on a regular basis, and there's a significant number of real world script blocks that don't conform to the

You might try Leap from www.ironicsoftware.com. I gave it a shot, and it located text in the footers of a .doc file. I think you'll like this app! Costs $59, but it's worth it. Great for finding nearly anything. On Fri, Jan 22, 2010 at 7:34 AM, Karen B catfish...@earthlink.net wrote: I work

Re-read tags file after running ctags

2010-01-22 Thread Charlie Garrison
Good evening, How do I tell BBEdit to re-read the tags file from my project directory after running ctags? The new tags file doesn't seem to get used until after re-launching BBEdit. I'm sure I'm missing something but I can't work out where I'm going wrong. Thanks, Charlie -- Ꮚ
