Dear Kaveh,

YES! Thank you! I tried the same procedure in Text Factory and it worked PERFECTLY! Quick question: Is it possible to set up a shortcut keystroke in BBEdit that (when pressed) will run my newly created TextFactory?

Yours,

Mark

Hi Mark

I think Text Factory is indeed what you need. it is not based on
keystrokes, but BBEdit actions that are carried out one after another. Here is a glimpse of one I made to convert VCF to CSV. I am using just regular
expressions, but you can use any BBEdit command.

Kaveh

Dear Rich,

Thanks! I have not yet explored “Text Factory” but will give it a whirl. Since we are talking about an internal BBEdit set of keystrokes, it might
be better to stay “in house.”

Yours,

Mark

I don't know anything about Keyboard Maestro, but have you considered
using a Text Factory for this?

Start with File => New => Text Factory and go from there.
