Murat,
To have a result with the found object you have to remove the "returning
results" options or set it to false in the find command.
*tell* *application* "BBEdit"
*set* result *to* *find* "" searching in *text* *of* *first* *window*
options {starting at top:*true*}
*end* *tell*

Try setting the "wrap around" option to true in the find command:
*find* "" searching in *text* 1 *of* *text window* 1 options {search
mode:*grep*, starting at top:*true*,

Hey All.
Would anyone be up to writing a couple of basic scripts for me to use in
BBEdit?
If so let me know price.
I just need a script to alphabetically sort lines within certain parameters
inside a text doc and another to replace certain text within a text doc.
I know this may be simple but
Hello,
I am new to BBEdit. I have searched this forum but have not been able to
locate a discussion relevant for my problem. I am maybe doing something
stupid but, I cannot make BBEdit find an HTML using it through Applescript,
in a document that definitely includes this tag.
My simple script
