I'm feeling little proud and a little sheepish. As I wrote 1300 lines when 
3 shell scripts totaling 6 lines - or just a unix worksheet-  could do the 
job great. But it was a fun project.
Also this is almost certain not to work on anyone else's computer... I 
laugh and cry.

It's a package <https://github.com/CiiDub/Exercism-BBEdit-Package> that 
works with a non-profit programming teaching site called Exercism.org 
<https://exercism.org>.

I think this might be a site a few folks on this list might be interested 
in. There are tracks on Awk, Pearl, Ruby, Python.. all great languages for 
manipulating text. 

Also customizing BBEdit is a great way to learn, as sometimes you just want 
things just so and that can be pretty darn motivating. I use to work with 
websites in another life and it was fun to seeing a projects bigger than 
one file to fruition. 

An interesting challenge was getting AppleScript and Ruby to play nice, I 
really like how dialog_builder.rb and exercism_dialogs.rb came out.

Thanks to anyone who wants to check it out and give me their thoughts.

Finally, I made a screenshot for the readme. It has BBEdit in it, if that 
isn't proper let me know and I'll remove it.
