Re: BBEdit - Find Replace using a list

For example, file://KR.tif and I need to change the 'KR' to AU, GB, DK and so on and save each find and replace as a new text file. Can this be done with BBEdit? Is this something else other than what BBEdit was designed for? Hi, the scripts from John and Chris provide pretty good solutions (as always with that two very kind and helpful list members). I just wanted to add a different way to achieve this without the need for scripting (ok, I'm using some shell commands but only the most basic ones). I would use BBEdit's Shell Worksheets and placeholders to do this: Assuming you have a folder myproject on your desktop and your master file is placed in it and named master.txt, do the following. 1) In your master file replace every occurrence where you want to change the language code with #BASENAME# (in your example file://KR.tif would become file://#BASENAME#.tif) 2) Open a new Shell Worksheet and write this in it: cd ~/Desktop/myproject cp master.txt EN.html cp master.txt DE.html cp master.txt GB.html ... and so on (extra tipp: just write down a list of your abbreviations one on each line, select all lines and use Text Prefix/Suffix Lines to add everything else in one go) And: just ignore, that your duplicate files are will be html files. They need to be named such to make step 4 work. 3) Select all lines from step 2 and hit Enter (not return!) This should execute all the lines duplicating your master file into all the needed language versions. 4) Select Markup Update Folder and update the myproject-Folder. (This command will ignore simple text files, so we had to disguise them as html in step 2). This step should replace the placeholders in each file with the filename text (EN, DE, ...). 5) Rename the files back to something meaningful after updating them. Just repeat the technique from step 2 with a list of commands similar to: mv EN.html 'my more meaningful file name_EN.txt' mv DE.html 'my more meaningful file name_DE.txt' and so on ... I don't want to compete with the elaborate script solutions already provided. I just wanted to add, that BBEdit provides powerful tools you can use to create simple quick and dirty solutions that are very flexible and may be easier to adapt to similar problems (same, same, but different). To learn it's powers, I highly recommend to read the very fine manual on a rainy weekend (or even before that). happy editing, Roland -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the BBEdit Talk discussion group on Google Groups.

I'm always catches by paging to the place I need and start typing, which results in BBedit jumping back to the still old actual line... how can I change this. As for why, Mac applications have behaved like this since 1984. On a terminal editor like emacs, there is no distinction between browsing a file and moving the insertion location because terminals don't have a concept of a cursor that isn't on the screen. The Mac design is that you shouldn't have to lose your place in your work just because you wanted to look elsewhere in your document. If you use option-arrow up or down, you'll move the insertion point by a screenful. And, it would be nice to add CMD+V without any selection to copy the whole current line. If I may venture to say, you'll be miserable switching between any other application and BBEdit. Cmd-V is Paste. People want to paste things into their documents even when the selection (there is always a selection) is empty. I guess it might be possible to construct an AppleScript command to see if the selection is empty, find the line's contents, and copy them; or paste if the selection isn't empty. Then you could reassign cmd-V to the script. — F -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the BBEdit Talk discussion group on Google Groups.

My Disappoints in BBEdit 10
I've really tried to like 10, but I find myself drifting back to 9.6 more and more. The main reason is I miss my pre-populated windows. For instance, want to add a stylesheet link in 9, just click Head Elements Link and get presented a nice modal with all available options. Now, in 10, I actually have to type in (and remember) all the options. The reason I've loved BBedit since v7 was it didn't make me type like other text editors, etc. Yea, I know autocomplete and such, but I loved not really thinking much about it. And how about easy stuff like mailto:. It was just highlight an address and click on anchor to have the modal box show all the options. Now I have to fill in an empty box? Yea, I know this could be done with clipping, but even that requires me to go back in and fill in the options. Please give me back my old modal boxes combined with the new interface. Staying this way will guarantee my never upgrading again. Cordially, Kirk -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the BBEdit Talk discussion group on Google Groups.

Hey Rick,
I have not tested this thoroughly, but it seems to be working alright with
indented and non-indented tags.
Note that I'm not testing for the presence of tags, so it will simply act on

[ANN] BBEdit 10.0.2 (3085) pre-release
Good { morning, afternoon, evening },
A new 10.0.2 pre-release build is now available.
Note that this is a _pre-release_ version. 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 (3085) (9/2/2011)
Additions
-
o (none in this build)
Changes
---
o (none in this build)
Fixes
-
* [NFR] Fixed bug in which live-matching in Open File by Name didn't
work correctly with instaprojects, or with projects
containing items
that weren't readable with current permissions.
* [NFR] The internal caching for instaprojects now resets if a folder
is modified in between invocations of the Open File by Name dialog.
* [NFR] Fixed regression in which direct manipulation of the scroll
bar didn't cause lists to scroll.
* [206950] Fixed crash which would occur when double-clicking
in the
Recent Documents list to open a remote (FTP/SFTP) document.
* [212909] Eliminated latency in enable/disable of markup tools
palette buttons, which would cause them to be disabled immediately
after window activations, which in turn led to them
appearing to
ignore the first click.
* [217897] Fixed bug in which compiled mach-o executables didn't
appear on the Apply Filters or Scripts menus.
* Text completions that depend on examining the document's contents
(both for tokens in the document, and for possible
completions from
the system spelling checker) are now skipped when the
document is
above a certain size. The cutoff can be adjusted with an expert
preference:
`defaults write com.barebones.bbedit
MaxDocumentLengthForCompletionTokenizer -int N`
`# N is an integer value, expressed in characters. The
factory default is 1048576.`

These things are so much more easily done using text filters, which
operate on the lines of the selection, unless there is none, in which
case they operate on the whole text of the doc.
Here's how I would do it:
#! /usr/bin/perl
while () {
$tabs = $1 if s~^(\t+)~~;
s~([^]+) # opening tag = $1
([^]+) # enclosed text = $2
([^]+) # closing tag = $3. Replace with:
~$tabs$1\n$tabs\t$2\n$tabs$3~x;
print;
}
As you see, the skeleton of the script, and numberless similar scripts is:
while() {
# substitutions, additions, deletions etc.
print
}
If you can use regular expressions in BBEdit's find dialogue then you
can use them in a Perl script and you can write such filters with
practically no knowledge of Perl. AppleScript sucks for such things.
AppleScript is for user interaction and for doing things in the app
that only Apple events can achieve.

TextExpander, BBEdit 10 and typing lag
Just curious -- has anyone else noticed a definite typing slowdown in BBEdit 10 with TextExpander enabled? I haven't noticed it consistently, but today things were very laggy in typing, and after trying a few different things -- removing a custom completion file I'd been playing with, doing the ol' Windows-esque trick of quitting and restarting everything -- I discovered that the lagginess largely went away when I disabled TextExpander. It looks like even with TE turned off, BBEdit doesn't keep up if I'm just typing random letters as fast as I can, but it keeps up with my normal typing speed (mostly). With TE turned on, though, the lag is pretty visible. Programs using the native text controls (i.e., TextEdit) don't exhibit this. This is with 10.0.2, builds 3081 and 3085. -- Watts Martin lay...@gmail.com smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature
