Robert,
The idea of using tokens is new to me. The idea seems sound but I am
confused about the syntax. Would you mind giving an example?
My questions are how to extract the token and replace it? can I use
replace, find, etc.
I looked up the token command and this was not clear.
Thanks,
Tom

Hello listeroos!
I have another question: Where is the best place to 'put'
Applescripts in Revolution?
I test them by putting them in a field and 'do' that field as
applescript.
I was thinking of using custom properties but some scripts need to
be built 'live' as in:
put first part of script into variable
then add Rev variable to that variable
then put last part of script after that variable
lastly, do variable as applescript
Or would it be better to put the pieces in the stack as variables
(then they could be reused often)
Thanks
Tom
Your thinking is quite correct and there is no need to split them
into parts. Just put the whole applescript into a custom property
with tokens where the dynamic parts are; for example,
[datafilepath] can be a token for a filepath. At runtime, fetch
this property into a variable and replace the tokens with actual
values.
By the way, have you tried talking directly to iTunes from Rev?
Look up send to program command. The commands are what you tell in
AppleScript to do.
Robert
