If only the content of the href attribute varies, this search should do the
trick:
\.
if you have no other tags with just a colon in it, you could probably
boil it down to

Replacement text would be a space (of course).

Hi Mark,
first answer: yes, coding a script would be the natural solution.
But. If you make a lot of assumptions, something like this would work:

((\3)) \2
breakdown:
(?s) = let the dot include line breaks
\[(\d+)\] = search for a number in brackets
Hi Mark,
assuming that your snippet is actually the complete content of the file, this
should work
search:
(?s)\A([^\n]+)\n*(.+)

Short explanation: (?s) = let . match line breaks; \A = beginning of document;
([^\n]+)\n* = capture first line, ignore following line breaks; (.+)

Rich’s patterns works for me - if I put some parentheses around the whole

I guess, without the pattern the quantifier only checks for the „\n“ and
you are in fact searching for a line of text followed by XXX line breaks
(aka empty lines).

Hi Gregg,
I'm not able to help you by myself on this. But perchance you need not reinvent
the wheel by peeking at John Gruber's fine "Select Word" script for
professional inspiration (and profund explanation):

Hi,
I would do this in two steps.
1) find:
<|>
replace with
\r
2) Process lines containing (with "copy to new document")
^[^@]+@[^@]+$
To make this a one-step-action: put it in a text factory ;-)

You'd need a textfactory with 10 replace steps, one for each number:
search
(\S*)1(\S*?)\.tif
replace
\1A\2.tif
search
(\S*)2(\S*?)\.tif
replace
\1B\2.tif
... and so on. \S finds every none-space character. Thus, if you have file
names with spaces in them you'll run into problems.
Beware that e
You might also take a look at jedit: http://www.jedit.org
It is written in Java - hence the J in the name. Fit for almost every editing
task - and also very customizable through plugins (unfortunately the MAC
version feels rather clumsy (at least to me) and is nowhere near BBEdit or even

If I understand this right, you are looking for extra hyphens in the opening

Hi all,
so I finally decided to try that MobileMe. BBEdit's feature lists emphasizes
the easy integration of BBEdit with Apple's online service. I searched the
manual, the forum and the preferences but can't find a word on how to do it
correctly. I suppose I just copy over the Application Suppo

Hi,
nice applescript solution to this paste-select problem from Kendall. I'd like
to offer another way using clippings. Just create a clipping with the following
