Hi, Hans-
Thanks for the reply.

for such cases I use this tmcommand: Input: selection or document Ouptut: new doc Command: #!/usr/bin/perl -w #!/usr/bin/perl -w
$cnt=1; $inc=1;
while(<>) { if(m/^\i((\d+)\s*,\s*(\d+))$/) { $cnt=$1; $inc=$2; next; } while(s/\i/$cnt/) {$cnt+=$inc;} print; } Example text: Hello, this is a test. \i(2,5) Here my \i. item followed by item \i. Furthermore here is my \i. item.
Then you get: Hello, this is a test. Here my 2. item followed by item 7. Furthermore here is my 12. item.
If you do not set up \i(a,b) it simply starts at 1 incremented by 1.
I've been using TextMate for a while, but I haven't had the time to dig into its more powerful features. I was able to create the command, but I don't quite understand the usage.
Here's an example use case: I have a document, and I want to write out a regex that matches on a certain pattern (Find: (<a) (class="([^"]*)") ) and add an id to each matching instance (Replace: $1 id="_\i(2,5)" $2 ), with changes applied inline into the current document. With a command, how to I supply the pattern to match? Is this possible?
