Hey Martin,

See this page.

http://bbeditextras.org/wiki/index.php?title=Codeless_Language_Modules 


The modules available won't have as comprehensive coloring as the Script Editor 
or Script Debugger, but they're better than nothing.

Re: AppleScript syntax colouring? How?

[Harvey Pikelberger]

When it comes to AppleScript consider JXA (JavaScript for Automation in 
macOS) -- in other words do AppleScript but with JavaScript, at which point 
you can take advantage of BBEdit's syntax coloring.  Also integrates with 
Node/NPM.

Some starters...

The short answer :-) is that BBEdit does not offer syntax 
coloring for AppleScript due to various technical & practical considerations.


Instead, we suggest you use the AppleScript Editor -- or if your 
scripting needs are more extensive, we highly recommend Script 
Debugger (and use it ourselves).

Thanks, but still no syntax colouring. Any idea?

A .scpt file is a compiled applescript. You need at least Script Editor to open 
and edit it.

BBEdit works with .applescript files, which are non compiled applescript 
documents.

AppleScript syntax colouring? How?

['Martin Petersen' via BBEdit Talk]

Played around with the Demo and I must say I am impressed by the support 
for Regular Expressions in the find and replace dialogue. Yet I can not 
find support (syntax coloring) for AppleScripts. Neither is a .scpt file 
automatically recognized nor can I find AppleScript in the language scopes 
at the bottom of the window. I am sure I do something wrong but what?
