Presuming that "hard" paragraph returns are used, not shift "soft" returns:

if (app.documents.length > 0) {
    var doc = app.activeDocument;
    processLayersAndGroups(doc.layers);
} else {
    alert("A document must be open to run this script!");

Not sure what you need. Do you understand that there are two different ways of adding horizontal text in Photoshop?

Here's how:

Add point text (to add a few words like a heading or title) or paragraph text.

Point text: Click anywhere on the canvas and type the text.

Paragraph text: Drag the cursor on the canvas to create a bounding box and type your paragraph.
