The following script does exactly what you want. I think this script was a
result of a similar discussion on this list years ago. I didn't write it myself
but unfortunately I do not know who's to be credited for it:
tell application "BBEdit"
if (balance tags) then
set x to characterOffset of selection
set y to x + (length of selection)
inside tag start range (x - 2) end range (x - 2)
set tagLength to (end_offset of tag of result) - (start_offset
of tag of result)
set x to x - tagLength - 1
inside tag start range (y + 1) end range (y + 1)
set tagLength to (end_offset of tag of result) - (start_offset
of tag of result)
set y to y + tagLength
select characters x thru y of window 1
else
beep -- script beeps if it could not create an initial balance
end if
end tell
happy balancing,
Roland
