my bbedit goes to 11 - project file/folder listing tip
just discovered that toggling the open/close triangle of the top-level folder of a project in the 'view files' view CLOSES all open sub folders... very useful. bruce https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-26cJGEJy21o/VEwUUNbQl9I/AEY/CNYmZdKwmKE/s1600/Screen%2BShot%2B2014-10-25%2Bat%2B2.17.11%2BPM%2Bcopy.jpg -- This is the BBEdit Talk public discussion group.

As Dave pointed out; that might be due to different version of grep; read the docco at the link he supplied (assuming you have current OS). I think it is probably better to go the applescript route. Not if you want the search to actually finish while you're still at work. Really, you could not have described grep any better; it's the tool you want; re-inventing a perfectly good tool makes no sense. I am actually using BBEdit v11 on x.10 but had a similar problem on mavericks. The simple multi file find can probably be scripted to repeat itself, I had initially tried using process lines containing ... but this deletes all the non matching. Sure it can be scripted. But will take much longer to write that script, and will take **MUCH** longer to run that script. The time it takes you to read the grep docco will be less than the time it takes to re-invent grep. I do have some basic perl knowledge so may be able to do it using that instead, passing the files in as parameters, but they are in different nested folders. Yep, Perl is much better suited (close to its original design purpose), but it's still not needed. It's overkill for the described problem. Of course, the real problem may be different than the described problem, in which case my suggestions could be very wrong. Combine grep with xargs, and I'd be *VERY* surprised if you need any scripting at all. Eg. the need to delete matched files (discussed earlier) would simply be: grep -R -l find this string in/this/path/ | xargs rm That command WILL delete all matched files (so be careful); should be interactive though, the following will force delete: grep -R -l find this string in/this/path/ | xargs rm -f BTW, how do I get commands to run in the Unix worksheet, cmd enter does not do anything ? (I need to RTFM). Yep, RTFM, cmd-enter does not do anything. Just press enter.
