Rev && appleScript

[Mark Schonewille]

Hi Tim,

On a side note, I don't think that you need to put "AppleScript"  
between quotes.

To return a value back to Revolution, use the return command :-)

put "set x to 12" & cr & "return x" into myScript
do myScript as AppleScript
put the result into rslt

Best regards,
