Passing parameters from Rev to Applescript

[Thomas McGrath III]

Add something like this:

	put field 1 into tTemp
	replace "tWindowName" with "Pictures" in tTemp
	do tTemp as Applescript


I usually do special tag around 'replaceable' items like in
replace "<property>" with pProperty in tTheScript
do tTheScript as applescript
