1) File > New > Shell Worksheet If you've never used it, this should open a worksheet with some default examples. 2) Type osascript -e 'tell application "BBEdit" to get contents of text document 1' | tr '\r' '\n' | sort | uniq -c | bbedit --clean into the worksheet. 3) Open the log-file in BBEdit, make sure it is the frontmost text document. 4) go back to the shell worksheet and select the line you just typed. 5) press 'enter' (⌅) or 'command+return' (⌘+⏎). A new text document should open with the unique lines, prepended with the number of occurrences. Of course, you could use the terminal, but this worksheet can be saved and reused. The command can be broken up into: # ask BBEdit to dump the contents of text window 1 to 'standard output' osascript -e 'tell application "BBEdit" to get contents of text document 1' # BBEdit uses \r internally, while a unix toolchain expects \n. tr translates: tr '\r' '\n' # sort the lines sort # find all unique entries. uniq requires its input to be sorted. uniq -c # Open the result in a new window in BBEdit. bbedit --clean The shell can be very powerful, with many tools that can be strung together in ways that even Bare Bones can't imagine. Now a few things would be nice: a) an option for the BBEdit commandline tool to dump the contents of a specified window to stdout, including file-based line endings (see tr). b) Adding a unique count to the unique lines/sort routine.
