Reply To: Is this Plug-in possible? (Background running)

Thanks for the response,

@Jongware: wow, seems pretty complex, but I'll do something about it. It should work just like GREP does for character styles for paragraphs, but applied to text frames so it could affect paragraph styles.

@David Blatner: I'm working with a few newspapers and I'm trying to implement as many automated features as possible because the clients are horrible at Indesign and aren't tech savvy.

For example: the plug-in would create automatic paragraph styling in this example:

The subheads need spacing in between the body text. They can't be used with the Next style feature because they aren't repeating exactly after one or two paragraphs of body text. If only GREP could apply paragraph styling! It could find sentences with no periods contained within body text, then apply a paragraph style.
