Getting environment settings on Mac

[Sarah Reichelt]

It depends on your system, but basically, you can use AppleScript to 
get info from the System Profiler (which was called Apple System 
Profiler in older systems). With OS X Panther, this script gives the 
complete list:

tell application "System Profiler"
	return the system profile
end tell

Once you get the result into Revolution, it is easy to extract the info 
you need. You may need to vary the script slightly if you are using 
another system.

Cheers,
Sarah
