Re: ASCII Comment Generator
The core functionality is about 500 lines of C-like code that I'd be interested in porting to a BBEDIT text handler if there's a reasonable learning curve for doing so. Can anyone advise me with a sample of what a text-handler or other kind of BBEDIT extension looks like? How do you envision people using your tool? For getting the output text generated, the easy solution, which you may already have, is compiling your C code as a stdio unix tool. However, I think the bigger problem is getting input to the tool, as there is no built in GUI for building extensions. Depending on your areas of comfort, I would suggest a small Cocoa application, whose window displays at NSStatusWindowLevel (which would have the appearance of being in BBEdit's display layers). When the app is finished running, there are a few ways to get the result back to the current document, the easiest being an AppleEvent (which can be expressed as an AppleScript). Which brings me to the next option, which is an AppleScript Studio application (or whatever Apple calls them these days). I guess it really depends on your goal.

ASCII Comment Generator
I had posted to this list an inquiry about ways in which my ascii comment
generator at
http://whs3rd.burlyhouse.net/cmn/commentx.t
could be adapted for inline operation within BBEDIT. After studying BBEDIT
manual, I
decided that the Text Filter capability would serve this need. I recast my
generator
in C and placed the calling unix shell script into BBEDIT's text filter folder.
Now I can type free-form lines like the first three below:
assembleComment
This function combines the content of graphic, bnr, and com into a single ascii
comment
and prints it back to BBEDIT.
void assembleComment()
int i;
.
.
.
select those 3 lines, pass them to my litebulb text filter and get back(best
viewed in mono-spaced font):
// ___
//.' '. |
// / \ _. _ _ _ .___ |_ | _ | _ .___ .___ _ ._ _|_
// | jgs| (_| _ _ (/_ | | | |_) | (/_ |_ (_) | | | | | | (/_ | | |_
//\ ~~ /
// \ || /This function combines the content of graphic, bnr, and com
// \ || / into a single ascii comment and prints it back to BBEDIT.
// {__==}
// {__==}
// \__/
void assembleComment()
int i;
.
.
.
If anyone's interested in the methods I've used here, I can provide full
particulars. (Now to write a
text filter that can actually generate code.)

Re: ASCII Comment Generator
Thanks for the thoughtful reply, Steve. As you may gather from my followup on this subject, I found a convenient way to do what I wanted using BBEdit's Text Filter capability.

[ANN] BBEdit 10.0.2 (3073) pre-release
Good { morning, afternoon, evening },
The announcement of a pre-release version on the list may come
as a surprise to some of you. :-) When preparing maintenance
updates (which primarily consist of bug fixes, with few to no
new features), we're going to post notification of the new
versions to this list, so that anyone who's interested can take
the new build for a spin.
Note that these are _pre-release_ versions. The intent is to fix
bugs and address areas of improvement based on what our
customers have reported. However, since the software is at this
point not fully tested, there _may_ be bugs and regressions. If
this prospect makes you nervous, then sticking with the public
release versions is your best course of action. Nobody will be
offended if you choose to do so; you're under no obligation to
install and use anything but a public release. :-)
Following is a summary of the changes in the software since the
last public release. The change notes are organized into
additions, changes, and fixes, and are annotated where
appropriate with case numbers. So if you recognize a number
corresponding to a support case that was opened for you, you can
now verify that it's been fixed correctly.
One final note: If you run into a bug in a pre-release version,
PLEASE DO NOT REPORT THE BUG TO THE LIST. This includes asking
about whether others have seen the same problem. Instead, please
send a bug report to supp...@barebones.com and we will deal
with it there. This will help us keep the list discussion on
topic and productive for all list members.
version 10.0.2 (3073) (8/14/2011)
Additions
-
* A new expert preference is available to control the
generation of
`img` markup:
`defaults write com.barebones.bbedit
HTMLImageMarkupUseInlineStyleForImageSize -bool YES`
If `HTMLImageMarkupCreatesSizeAttributes` is turned on,
then turning on `HTMLImageMarkupUseInlineStyleForImageSize`
will instruct BBEdit to generate the image size as an
inline style attribute:
`img src=foo.png alt=Some picture style=width: 640px;
height = 480px; `
Changes
---
o (none in this build)
Fixes
-
* Fixed bug in which opening a gzip or bz2 compressed file
would in
some circumstances cause non-wonderful things to happen.
* [207359, 207509] Eliminated the pause when enumerating a project
for multi-file search/replace or text factory application. (You'd
need close to a million files in the project to notice.)
* Corrected incorrect key in the Expert Preferences help for report
single-file Replace All results expert preference.
* Fixed bug in which the Any/All setting for file filters
was lost
when editing a filter (and got reset to All internally, even
though the editing panel indicated Any).
* Fixed bug in which the (current criteria) setting and
terms were
lost when the Multi-File Search window was closed.
* Fixed bug in which it was not possible to clear keyboard
equivalents for scripts, filters, or clippings.
* Fixed bug in which project documents would incorrectly check for
self-modification before auto save, and a crash which would
occasionally occur thereafter.
* [213345, 215651] Fixed bug in which FTP bookmarks weren't correctly
loaded or saved in the Setup UI when certain components
(such as
user name or password) contained URL-unsafe characters.
* [215613] Fixed bug in which changing the soft wrap mode
setting in
language customized options didn't take effect.
* When using the Markup Panel to apply markup for `p`, `li`,
`th`, and `td` by converting existing unformatted text, the
markup and attributes are applied to all eligible lines of text.
* If something that looks like a URI is selected when choosing the
Anchor markup command, an href attribute will be
populated using
the selected text.
* [215851] Corrected factory default of
`ClippingsIgnoreTrailingReturns` expert preference.
* When generating image markup using the Markup Panel, `alt`,
`height`, and `width` attributes are now created (or
updated) when
an image file is selected. The presence of these attributes depends
on the `HTMLImageMarkupUsesFileNameForAlt`,
`HTMLImageMarkupCreatesSizeAttributes`, and
`HTMLImageMarkupUseInlineStyleForImageSize` attributes.

Re: FTP/SFTP Browser shows two folders in every directory
John, Robert, Doug, Thank you guys so much for your replies. I just started reading the manual about worksheets for the first time.. and .. wow! Great. So much for me to learn, I am easy to impress here.. I'll have to dig my way as/when i am able.. lots of real work deadlines here that are much more superficial than our cool tools. Yeah, BareBones, a worksheet list/group would be great! I am sure there are many flavors of great CL lists already, but I would LOVE the BBedit flavor! ;-) -Govinda -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the BBEdit Talk discussion group on Google Groups.

Re: FTP/SFTP Browser shows two folders in every directory
Govinda govinda.webdnat...@gmail.com squawked out on Sunday 14-Aug-2011@14:52:35 WHY does it not work to just be in the right directory and type the name of a command Unix will only execute files that are either in the predefined path or are specified by a full path name. This is a security measure. For example, if you have the command ‘ls’ to list a directory and someone writes an executable named ‘ls’ than instead deletes the current directory the could be bad. So, you define a list of folders (called the PATH) that contain all the programs that you generally want to run. For example, my PATH differs from the default in that I added $HOME/bin to the end of it so that the scripts that I write are run-able without my typing ~/bin/myscript, I can just type myscript instead. Since I added it at the END, nothing in my ~/bin/ will override a ‘real’ command in on of the default directories. I would still have to type ~/bin/myscript (or ./myscript if I was already in ~/bin/) to execute my own ls command. If you are interested in learning about the command line there is a very good series named in a Nutshell, and of these, Unix in a nutshell is a great book. There is an OS X specific version, but it is for Tiger. http://oreilly.com/store/series/nutshells.html I still have my 1st edition Unix in a Nutshell and it is one of the few print books I still reference.

images in newest version
This is great and thank you: When generating image markup using the Markup Panel, `alt`, `height`, and `width` attributes are now created (or updated) when an image file is selected. Am I correct in noting that height and width are not actually updated when applying Edit Markup to an existing img tag? These still need to be updated manually if the image dimensions are changed?

grep help needed for spaces in mailto links
Hello, I need to turn all instances of ... *“mailto:someone@site**.ca**?subject=Hello John” ... into ... **“mailto:**someone**@**site**.ca**?subject=Hello%20John”* Basically, find any mailto link with a subject, and then find any space in that subject and replace it with %20. I need to do this across a large site with many nested directories. There are (I counted) 733 mailto links with a subject. As usual, my grepping skills are lacking, probably because I only need some new tweak every couple of years or so.
