 Any ideas ? Thanks.


You know, I really would like to know why it is that people insist on 
posting incredibly detailed bug reports to this forum, rather than sending 
them to Bare Bones technical support. I mean, as someone who has to deal 
with technical support issues myself, I'm quite curious. Is it just a 
mistrust of the official channels? Is it that people send in reports and 
get no response and are thus frustrated? Is it just plain ignorance? Is it 
the fact that the Google Groups facility doesn't make it easy to shove the 
'contact technical support' notice in people's faces?

And I wonder whether BB have simply given up and now consider this forum 
(and the others) as simply an alternative to the tech support e-mail 
address. I mean, I would be sorely tempted to do so -- at least if any 
significant fraction of my bug reports came through this channel rather 
than the recommended one.

Anyway. Just wondering, really.

Re: Correct Spelling Automatically?

Sorry for the **late** response -- haven't looked at list mail in a while.

 Out of curiosity, what sort of writing are you using BBEdit for where this 
 would be a useful addition?

I use BBEdit as a all-in-one tool -- not only for coding, but for
any kind of text manipulating task I'm doing.  For example if I'm
doing a quick edit of a paragraph of text I don't want to open up Word
(or any other bulky word processor) when I can do it 2x as fast in
BBEdit.  Plus, I really like the spelling correction functionality in
the recent MacOS versions.  I know a lot of people hate it -- not sure
why, but for me, it's saved me a lot of times (in Mail) where I've had
to shoot off a quick email without taking a lot of time to proofread.

Hope that helps to clarify -- thanks for taking the time to respond on this.

Re: Correct Spelling Automatically?

2012-05-30 Thread Oliver Taylor
I agree. I use BBEdit mostly for writing and taking notes, not for 
coding; text manipulation or sculpting.

Fast and efficient spelling correction is the one thing I wish I could 
improve in BBEdit.

I'd kill for: one key-press to jump to the previous misspelled word and a 
pop-up with suggestions I could select with the keyboard, I hit enter and 
I'm taken back to where I was. 3 keystrokes to correct a misspelling. Or 
maybe just give me a keybinding for the contextual menu for the selected 
word — but BB I'm sure can come up with something better.

Open find window with options

2012-05-30 Thread Oliver Taylor
I'd like a hotkey that brings up the find window with specified options (the 
find options are sticky but when I hit this key I want them to be reset to my 
specs). I've got the following applescript, but it doesn't populate the search 
field or fill-out the options.

(I don't know much about applescript)

tell application BBEdit
try
open find window
find hello searching in text of front text window options {search mode:grep, 
starting at top:false, wrap around:true, backwards:false, case sensitive:false, 
match words:false, extend selection:false} with selecting match
end try
end tell

Also, when I hit return the window goes away, but when I hit the hotkey for 
previous (shift-command-G) the window stays open, is there a way to find 
previous and dismiss the window with one keystroke?

splitting a text document into chunks found by search

2012-05-30 Thread e2o
Hello!

Is there a way to automatically create new BBEdit documents for each
chunk of text that is selected by a Find command? I have a document
with a ton of multi-line chunks, with the format:

*first line of chunk 1
body of chunk 1
body of chunk 1
body of chunk 1
*first line of chunk 2
body of chunk 2
body of chunk 2
body of chunk 2
*first line of chunk 3
body of chunk 3
etc.

I need to create a new text document out of each chunk. I already have
a grep pattern that matches the chunks: ^\*(?s)[^\*]*   , but how can
I automate the creation of new text documents for each found chunk?
The Find All Search Result windows shows that all of my chunks are
correctly found.

Any ideas?

thanks,

- eric

Hey Oliver,

This is the scripted find command and has nothing to do with the find dialog.

As far as I can see there is no way to do what you want.

Put some text in the find dialog and run this:

tell application BBEdit
properties of find window
end tell

It doesn't give you much.

I suggest you make a feature suggestion to support.  If you do you can add me 
as a +1 - I think the find window should be more scriptable.

 Also, when I hit return the window goes away, but when I hit the hotkey for 
 previous (shift-command-G) the window stays open, is there a way to find 
 previous and dismiss the window with one keystroke?

I don't see any way.

You think that Shift-Return/Enter would find backwards though.
