Hi Gary,<br>
<br>
Thanks for writing again and in answer to your questions, based on this:<br>

<br>
>> 1) Can BBEdit issue an applescript command?<br>
<br>
Yes, you can run an AppleScript within BBEdit at any time via its Scripts menu or an assigned key shortcut.<br>
<br>
<br>
>> 2) If not, can BBEdit call a shell script?<br>
<br>
Yes, in the exact same manners as above. :-)<br>
<br>
<br>
>> 3) Suppose the user clicks a spot in a BBEdit file while holding down the command key, or possibly some other key. Can this event a user defined command? Can it trigger 1) or 2)?<br>
>> <br>
<br>
Since Command-right click will invoke the contextual menu (as usual for Mac apps) I presume you're referring to a Command-left click and if so, this gesture has no ordinary result _unless_ applied to an URL (in which case BBEdit will attempt to resolve same),
but cannot (currently) be bound to any other action.<br>
<br>
However, based on the thread below, if you're looking for a convenient way to make an action within BBEdit cause something to happen in an external app, may I suggest you consider making use of BBEdit's event attachment support, such as 'documentDidSave', to
perform a scripted action every time you save the frontmost (active) document within BBEdit.<br>
<br>
[For complete details, please see the section "Attaching Scripts to Events" in Chapter 13 of the included PDF manual, and you're welcome to share the relevant excerpts with the original inquirer and/or list. :-)<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
<br>

But, I have not tried to implement the reverse syncing, from BBEdit to TexShop, and it’s not very clear to me exactly how to go about it, especially since my experience with AppleScript is quite limited.<br>
