I've been trying to understand how one uses appleEvents and have played with
the following script. I cannot figure out how one gets the path of the files
from the script.
One of the things I am trying to achieve is to be able to drop a jpeg
onto a Rev card/window and be able to get the path to that jpeg.
I understand that I can do so with the external that is available
but am hoping to be able to do this through scripting & AE alone.
Can anyone clue me in? Can I achieve this with Rev 1.1.1? How?

handle the "appleEvent" message.
Put the following handler in your stack script:
on appleEvent eClass, eID, eSender
if eClass = "odoc" then
request appleEvent data
if the result = empty then
answer "OpenDoc AppleEvent!" & return \
& "id =" && eID \
& "sender =" && eSender \
& "data =" && it
else
pass appleEvent
end if
else
pass appleEvent
end if
end appleEvent
Build a standalone, and try it. You should see that when you drag and drop
a file, this handler fires, and the data for the apple event is the path of
the file(s).
