To use this: * Copy the above into a new BBEdit document and make sure that the "#!/bin/sh" line is the first line in the file * Save it to ~/Application Support/BBEdit/Text Filters/ (or "~/Dropbox/Application Support/BBEdit/Text Filters/" if you sync via Dropbox) * name it something like "Linesort With Totals.sh" * find it under the Text Filters menu: http://images.luo.ma/bbedit/linesort/linesort-as-text-filter.jpg NOTE: TextFilters will REPLACE the content of your file. If you want to leave the contents of the file alone and have the output of "Linesort With Totals.sh" to appear in another BBEdit file, you should use it as a BBEdit _Script_ which means: Use this script instead: #!/bin/sh /usr/bin/sort --numeric-sort "$BB_DOC_PATH" |\ /usr/bin/uniq -c |\ /usr/bin/sort --numeric-sort exit 0 #EOF * put it into "~/Application Support/BBEdit/Scripts/" (or "~/Dropbox/Application Support/BBEdit/Scripts/" * find it under the 'scripts' menu: http://images.luo.ma/bbedit/linesort/linesort-as-script.jpg BTW I have created a script which can be used as _either_ a Text Filter _or_ a BBEdit Script. You can find it here: http://images.luo.ma/bbedit/linesort/Linesort%20With%20Totals.sh (to download it, go to http://images.luo.ma/bbedit/linesort/ and then control+click on the ".sh" file) No guarantees, use at your own risk, if it breaks you get to keep both parts, but it worked for me.
