OK, I missed that part of your question. When I run a script I
want the script itself to be the active file, so it's a
no-brainer. I seem to recall needing to run a script ages ago
that got the front document (which wasn't the script) and I just
called some AppleScript to do that; pretty easy to add. Assuming
a shell script (adjust for other languages); it should just be a
matter of something like:
FRONT_DOC=`osascript -e 'tell application "BBEdit" to get POSIX
path of ((file of front document) as string)'`
So, not built-in to BBEdit, but just a one-liner to add to
existing scripts.
