Did you try pasting the snippets into the MyChannel sample?

Maybe a petition to Bare Bones to have enhanced Sherlock file format
support in a future version of BBEdit would be in order ;-) Any editor
that maps <>& to <>& in the contents inside the wrapper tags
(a la Property List Editor) would be welcome.
Even using concat(), the tags have to be escaped, not making the code
much more readable, either.
