Hello, You are asking a number of very specific questions with a big of a vague description. This is an advanced topic that folks here may or may not have experience with. I am not familiar with this area myself, but I would suggest reading about Applescript writing, practice writing a few small Applescripts to play with the code structure, and see how the process works. Rather than focusing on the particulars of precisely what you want your script to do, maybe you create it so it generally does what you want it to. Later, when you're more comfortable with scripting, you can work on customizing and perfecting the script. It all comes in steps. I am studying up on C programming right now in preparation for learning more about Objective C, and it is the same kind of process. Foundations have to be built first, which let you go on to think of more and more creative uses for a general skill set. At the end of the day, knowing how to do a specific operation only lets you do that specific operation, but knowledge of general and basic concepts lets you branch out and explore more widely.
I hope this helps! I've never even thought of looking into Applescripting, but I wish you all the best with it.
