I have a script that extracts all of the links on a particular

involves exporting to a text document, then using a manually
recorded macro that presses command-f, types in the two strings,
then presses enter... Then reimports from the text document so I can
pass the result to the next action. But clearly this is a
ridiculous solution.
Is there a better way?
Well, you could spring the $5 for the TextEdit Action Pack <http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/automator/texteditactionpack.html
