AppleScript, iTunes and Rev

Here is an AppleScript that gives you the song name, artist & album
separated by commas.
Put this in a Rev property or field and then "do myScript as
AppleScript". If you then check "the result" you should have the data
you need.
tell application "iTunes"
set trackID to the current track
set trackName to the name of trackID
set artistName to the artist of trackID
set albumName to the album of trackID
set totalData to trackName & ", " & artistName & ", " & albumName
return totalData
end tell
This has only been tested on OS X but I assume the OS 9 version of
iTunes has the same AppleScript dictionary.
Cheers,
Sarah
