Not sure if you can get at the alignment scripts in Rev, but if not,
alignment scripts are accessible in MetaCard.

On a related note, I've always believed that object alignment is somewhat
non-standard in Rev and MC.  In most layout applications, when you align
objects to the left, for example, all objects move to the extreme left of
all selected objects, not the first object selected.  (I suppose in an ideal
world it might be good to provide both options for alignment.) I've written
some scripts that deal with object alignment in the above manner.  If you
can't track down any of the development environment scripts, let me know.
