It's a shame that the "style" of the words are based on attribute runs with
"characteristics", and don't include "what" those words are -- variable,
application keyword, and so on.
I had hoped to use:
set formatList to ""
set fileRef to POSIX path of alias <nobreak>
((path to preferences as text) & "com.apple.applescript.plist")
set formatList to every paragraph of (do shell script "cat " & <nobreak>
fileRef & " | sed -n <nobreak>
's/\\(<string>\\)\\(.*\\)\\(<\\/string>\\)/\\2/p' | cut -f3")
return formatList
...to find the AppleScript formatting and match that to the attribute run
properties, but that may prove difficult for a general script -- for example
the font name/style is difficult to match. But for personal use I guess you
could hard code those into a script.
So, pull out all the attribute runs, wrap them in HMTL/CSS tags dependent on
what they are rather than what they look like, then write the HTML file.
Sound feasible?
(I had thought of saving/rewriting the formatting prefs, so as to start from
a known format, but they wouldn't take immediate effect on a recompile.
Bum.)
Later,
Nigel
