Re: Custom sequencing

[Christopher Waterman]

I've been trying to get better at awk recently and this seems like an awk 
kind of problem. 
Printing 3 digit numbers with leading zeros is definitely a problem printf 
is just sitting there waiting for.

*Go Text • Run Unix Command *and paste in paste in this command into the 
dialog:
seq 250 | awk '{printf "\n\n\n", $0}'

Re: Custom sequencing

[jj]

Execute this snippet of AppleScript with Script Editor:

tell application "BBEdit"
set vContents to ""
repeat with i from 1 to 250
set vNumber to i as string
if i < 10 then
set vNumber to "00" & vNumber
else if i < 100 then
set vNumber to "0" & vNumber
end if
set vContents to vContents & "\n\n\n"
end repeat
make new document with properties {contents:vContents}
end tell

Re: Custom sequencing

[Tom Robinson]

Right, that’s an issue.

You could search for a single digit and replace with 00, then do the 
same for double digits — or start at 1000 and remove the leading digit — but 
easier to use a spreadsheet :]

Re: Custom sequencing

Still are faced with adding 0 or 00 to numbers less than 100 of the 
generated line numbers, no? Or is there a buried preference for asserting 
the number of leading zeros?
Numbers.app allows this with the Cells/Data Format/Numeral System   Base 
and Places

[Arasmus]

Nice! I'd ssearched the manual for "sequence" before posting but missed the 
line numbers command. Thanks.

Hey Maciek,

Please provide an accurate sample of the before state of your copied paths.

Once we see that your task should be pretty simple.

Re: Custom sequencing

[Tom Robinson]

No need for a spreadsheet, BBEdit has a line numbering command :]

1. create document with 250 blank lines
2. Text > Add/Remove Line Numbers.  Don’t add spaces or justify — we just want 
a plain number
3. Do a Grep search for an entire line:
^.*$
Replace with the example HTML below verbatim, except substitute & for the 3 
digits:
\n\n\n
4. profit

Re: Custom sequencing

[Arasmus]

Perhaps the easiest way would be to use a spreadsheet to generate the 
sequence of numbers from 1-250..paste the numbers into an empty text 
file..search and replace each of the numbers with the figure code.

Custom sequencing

[Maciek Schejbal]

Hullo BBEdits!

I have 250 images to be shown in the slide show. After I copy the paths, 
would anybody have a way to automate BBEdit to continue numbering the 
following sequence?

Many thanks,
Maciek
