Please forgive me if I'm missing something basic. I certainly feel
like I am. Whatever happened to:
set selection to paragraph 1 of document "some doc"
or
set selection to "some text" & return
or
set style of selection to bold
in Applescripting text editors?
I have TextEdit and BBEdit on my OS X machine and am struggling with
finding a simple, clear way to append text to the end of a document.
Applying a style would be a nice bonus.
Can anyone recommend an Applescriptable OS X compatible text editor
which uses simple command like this. Or a simple method to append
text and change styles in TextEdit?
Thanks,
Gary
