Someone please help me here and show me how to get this to work. I've checked examples on returning values from functions with this AppleScript, but something I am missing here.
I'm trying to get the function, strTest(), to pass a string that will then be printed to the BBEdit editor. If I were to replace the variable with a static string, that works. But this isn't working at all. I'm getting: "The variable theText is not defined."
Does anybody see what's going on?
on strTest()
set returntest to "this is a test"
return returntest
end strTest
tell application "BBEdit"
set theText to strTest()
tell window 1
set insertionP to get selection
set text of insertionP to (theText & (text of insertionP))
end tell
end tell
