Have you seen BBEdit's Notebook format? It's like Scrivener for plain text.
When I write for Affinity Publisher, I often use a BBEdit notebook for my
copy editor. That's "copy" as in what people used to call what they wrote
for publication in newspapers and magazines.

document is located. Not sure why show in
Finder was grayed out. Even if I navigate to the notebook file in Finder
and double click open it there, ignoring Curio altogether, Show in Finder
remains inactive.
Thanks in advance!

I've searched Google and the documentation. I've been using BBEdit for a
while, and I can't believe I'm not finding this answer myself.
I like to use notebooks for writing copy for Affinity Publisher projects.
Today I created a new notebook and ended up not being able to find it on my
Mac. I
the complication of
pasting new styles into Affinity. Of course, I could paste as plain text,
but why not just use plain text to begin with?
BBEdit is a great tool.

First, insert standard gushing about BBEdit. It is cool in the extreme.
Automator doesn't show any BBEdit actions. I found a Barebones

at https://www.barebones.com/support/bbedit/automator.html .

The term "sync" does not appear in the BBEdit user manual in the context of
syncing text files. I believe BBEdit probably doesn't support multiuser
simultaneous access to text files.
Mac apps that support document handoff natively support that, though. For
instance, you can open an Apple Pages
Edit->Select all should light up the Copy function.

I used a BBEdit notebook file last week for creating copy for a pamphlet
formatted with Affinity Publisher. It was a very nice experience.
I used soft wrap with two returns to separate paragraphs. Before
copy-and-paste into Affinity text frames I used the Text->Remove Blank
Lines command. That
Unless you have a specific need for your output to be in Numbers, try the
mail merge feature in Pages.
I think you can use your tsv file directly in Pages. If not, Numbers will
open tsv files as if they were spreadsheet files.

Text->Remove Line Breaks appears to be a built in feature to do what you
want. Basically, blocks of text with single line breaks become one long
line. Two newlines separate paragraphs. View->Text Display->Soft
This appears to be what Text->Remove Line Breaks does in a single click.
But how's this for shorter and sweeter grep-ness.
In grep mode, search for:
[^$]\n
or shorter yet:
.\n
Either one seems to find newlines at the end of text, but not on a line by
themselves. Replacing with a space

I'd like to learn how to do this, too. BBEdit would be a fantastic
companion editor for desktop publishing apps like Affinity Publisher if
newlines were paragraph separators.

Better than a spreadsheet, check out Easy Data Transform. I have no
connection to that product other than as a happy user.
It lets you build a map of operations against as many spreadsheets, csv
files, fixed length records, json, xml, xlxs, etc., as you want. Output

Newbie here - hope it's OK to weigh in.
You can drag the divider down to create a horizontal split. For a vertical
split, show the sidebar (View->Window appearance->Show sidebar or
Command-Zero) and right click on the file you want to split. Choose "open
in additional window."

I bought BBEdit this week, and I'm delighted. I haven't had anything this
nice since VEDIT back in the old DOS days. That's not sarcasm. Anything in
VEDIT's league (it's Windows-only) is very
