Something I will say is that while I've found the codeless language module
functionality very helpful, and I have written and maintain a few of my own, I
have also, perhaps partly due to ignorance, ran into their limitations quite a bit.
I really appreciate BBEdit's new support for language
Chris,
I've also made my own CLM for Fish. Instead of using
BBLMPredefinedNameList for as additional commands, I'm using it for
"special" variables: PATH, fish_greeting, fish_color_*, etc. Basically
everything listed here:

Hi Eric,
This snippet of AppleScript might help you.
try
tell application "BBEdit"
set vText to ""
tell first document of first window
set vRegex to "(?s)\\A(.*?)\n\\s*\n" -- Captures everything at the
beginning of a document up to but not including the first blank line.
set vMatch to find
