Re: Set selection point to next line in AppleScript

I changed `startLine *of* selection` to `endLine *of* selection` and now it
moves to the next line after the selection.
Thanks,
Rainer

I have the following AppleScript to execute het selected text in R and
return the focus to BBEdit:

*set* the_selection *to* (selection *of* *front* *window* *as* *string*)
*if* (the_selection) *is* "" *then*
*try*
*set* the_selection *to* *line* (*get* startLine *of* selection) *of*
*front* *window* *as* *string*
*on* *error*
*display dialog* "The active window must be an editor window, with a file
opened. You want to run something in R? Well, tell me what!" with icon
*note* buttons {"Got it!"} default button 1
*error* number -128
*end* *try*
*end* *if*
*end* *tell*
*tell* *application* "R"
*cmd* the_selection
*end* *tell*
*tell* *application* "System Events"
