Soft-Wrap Text in BBEdit - Uncorrected
An oldie but goodie from John Gruber that I just discovered while looking for ways to soft-wrap text in BBEdit:
This is a handy AppleScript. I don’t like to soft wrap my text in BBEdit by default, but always seem to end up wrapping it anyway. I launch this using Fastscripts by Daniel Jalkut with just a keystroke.
tell application "BBEdit"
tell window 1
if not (soft wrap text) then
set soft wrap text to true
set soft wrap mode to page guide
set show page guide to true
else if (soft wrap mode is page guide) then
set soft wrap mode to window width
set show page guide to false
else
set soft wrap text to false
end if
end tell
end tell
