Does Applescript work?

I'm still struggling with Revolutions ability to use (or not) Applescript.
The following script doesn't work at all for me. It works fine from the
script editor but not from Revolution. You'll see I set x to three
different values, comment out the later one or two to try different tests.
The tests are these:
tell application "Finder" to set the clipboard to name of every process as
text
tell application "Finder" to set the clipboard to "test"
set the clipboard to "test"
My clipboard remains unchanged throughout. Is this true for everyone?
Also my Finder doesn't seem to collect the name of every process running.
on mouseUp
put "tell application ""e&"Finder""e&" to set the clipboard to
name of every process as text" into x
put "tell application ""e&"Finder""e&" to set the clipboard to
""e&"test""e into x
put "set the clipboard to ""e&"test""e into x
put x
put empty into card field "Procs"
do x as AppleScript
select text of card field "Procs"
paste
end mouseUp
