There are "scripts" and "filters" and I often have trouble figuring out what each of them does. I'll bet you folks had them in different sections. I find it easier to just pass the version of the file on disk to an ordinary perl script. There's a preference in BBEdit that will cause an open version of a file to take notice of a change and reopen. Just be sure to save the file before running an external script though. -- --> From the U S of A, the only socialist country that refuses to admit it. <-- -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Have a feature request?
