Guido,
I was intrigued by your question and was disappointed that there was no way to get the word count of a text being created on the fly.
So I set up to try to find a way.
I know you have something already working, I don’t have JSON helper and, so far, no use for it.
Also, no TextWrangler (BBEdit).
However, I think I came up with a way to write the new line and the numbers of times it shows up before on the fly.
I can not comment on speed but I assume it would be much faster than the one you have since I don’t really have to count the number of occurrences of a word, however, I can not test, just speculate.
I’ve used parts of Nigel’s version, I’d appreciate if you let me know it works for you.
Thanks.
Here is the script
<script>
set theDocName to "theDocName"
set lista to {}
set wordcount to {}
tell application "TextWrangler"
activate
set myDocument to make new text document with properties {name:theDocName}
set show line numbers of myDocument to false
end tell
on idle
global lista
global wordcount
tell application "JSON Helper" to set myFruit to fetch JSON from mySource
if myFruit is in lista then
try
set wc to wordcount as string
on error e
set e to text (get offset of "{" in e) thru (get offset of "}" in e) of e
end try
set {wordcount, kount} to run script "set nue to " & e & "\n\t\tset nue's " & myFruit & " to nue's " & myFruit & " + 1\n\t\treturn {nue,nue's " & myFruit & " }"
else
set end of lista to myFruit
set {wordcount, kount} to {wordcount & (run script "{" & myFruit & ":1}"), 1}
end if
tell application "TextWrangler"
tell text of front text window
make new line at end with data (myFruit & space & kount)
select insertion point -1
end tell
end tell
return 0.5
end idle
</script>
