I did it again-CaSe PrObLeM

[verdonv]

If you want to fix it properly, use a series of case-sensitive mult- file 
search and replaces. If you want to put a band aid on it, and are using and 
Apache server, and can configure Apache or get a sysadmin to do it... there is 
a 'Spelling' module for Apache, which amongst other things will make it 
case-insensitive.

Re: Code coloring goes away after some edits

A way to trick it to refresh is to use the little language control at the

Re: Scripting search/replace

[verdonv]

 Right.  I explained that already.  Perhaps my explanation wasn't clear?
No it was fine. It just took a bit to sink in ;-)

 I also explained that the major problem remaining is that clippings EAT 
 trailing whitespace even if they themselves CONTAIN whitespace.  That takes a 
 little working around; the script appended does so.
I ran into something that must have been that in one of my attempts.

I REALLY appreciate your appended script. I'm reading through it now
to see if I can sort out what it's doing. The language constructs are
foreign to me, but I should be able to puzzle through the logic.

Thanks again,

Re: Scripting search/replace

After looking through the BBEdit script library, I realize the problem
is that the 'replace' actually returns an integer that represents the
number of instances of the pattern changed, and not the changed

Clippings work, I think I'll have to fudge this so that the
applescript does the replace on the selection, then copies the

insert it... seems kind of round-about, but I really want to keep all
this within the clipping set.

I'll take the discussion to a more appropriate forum.

  Hey Verdon,

  The trouble is that your script acts on the selection, and then the

  I was going to say that you could go ahead and get the selection after the

 Hey Verdon,

 Any special reason you're activating this with a clipping rather simply 
 putting your script in the script menu?

 When you 'return chords' you're getting back something similar to:

  characters 2 thru 42 of text document 1 of application BBEdit

 BBEdit then want to use this to replace the text you've already replaced with 
 the script, but the data types don't match up.

 Why not just use a script in the first place?

 tell application BBEdit
   tell selection of front text window
     replace (\\w+) using ¬
       [\\1] options {search mode:grep, case sensitive:false}
   end tell
 end tell

Re: Clipping and indent

Thanks very much Prachi,

That did the job (and gives me a working example for other similar
things). I was nearly at something like this in one of my earlier

to return as a string... or something like that. I tried so many

 When using scripts with clippings, you need to return a string at the

 Try this script:

 tell application BBEdit
         set INDENT_STRING to      
         set indentedLines to INDENT_STRING  return
         set selectionLines to every line of selection
         repeat with selectionLine in selectionLines

 selectionLine 
 return
         end repeat
         return indentedLines
 end tell

 with this clipping:

 {c:Chorus}
     {soc}#SCRIPT indentselection.scpt#{eoc}

 While, John’s suggestion of using a UNIX filter is a bit cleaner than
 this AppleScript + Clipping stuff, the unfortunate thing about UNIX
 filters is that if you don’t have anything selected, it operates on
 the entire text of the selection, which might not be what you want.

Re: Clipping and indent

[verdonv]

Thanks for the example JD. I'm always amazed at the simple elegance or
perl :-)

The only reason that I am trying to keep everything contained in a
clipping set though, is because I have a number of other clippings for
working on these documents' markup (chordpro) and I like the
portability and 'everything in one pallet' aspect of using a clipping
set. I'll keep your example close at hand though.. Thanks again!

 Seems a rather clumsy way to do things.  You can do it with a simple
 text filter (UNIX filter).  Here's one in Perl that will do what you
 want:

 #! /usr/bin/perl
 use strict;
 my $s =      ; # indent string
 my $text = $s;
 while (){ # for each line in the selection
    chomp; # remove line endings
    $text .= $_\n$s; # append line to $text}

 print {c:Chorus}\n$s\{soc}\n$text\{eoc};

Re: Clipping and indent

[verdonv]

Hmmm... my formatting seems to get lost in the email version of this..
I'll try again using tab to indicate my indent...

Given that I have an variable number of lines of text like such,

The rain in Spain
falls mainly in the plain
The fog in the bog
makes a slippery log

I'd like to make a clipping that will result in this,

{c:Chorus}
tab{soc}
tabThe rain in Spain
tabfalls mainly in the plain
tabThe fog in the bog
tabmakes a slippery log
tab{eoc}

My rough clipping is like this,

{c:Chorus}
tab{soc}
tab#SELECTIONORINSERTION#tab{eoc}

Which results in this,

{c:Chorus}
tab{soc}
tabThe rain in Spain
falls mainly in the plain
The fog in the bog
makes a slippery log
tab{eoc}

I've tried fiddling with #indent# but I realize now, that's not it's
purpose.

Any thoughts how to get the subsequent lines to indent to the position
of the first in the selection?
