I use Firefox for browsing and BBEdit for text editing. I want the 'View Source' command in Firefox to display the source code in BBEdit rather than in Firefox's own window.
I have adjusted the Firefox config settings appropriately, by setting view_source.editor.external
to true
and view_source.editor.path
to /Applications/BBEdit.app/Contents/MacOS/BBEdit.
When I click on 'View Source' a new instance of BBEdit launches (even if one is already open), with a blank text document.
If I set the editor to TextEdit, it works fine, with the source code displayed in a TextEdit window. Why isn't it displaying in BBEdit?
