iTunes Applescripts
the php thing is neat, but what if you can't see your monitor? what if my computer could read my track info, wouldn't that be great, well it can. i made this applescript a while back so i could find out what was playing and not get in my way. here is the applescript:
property volumeLow : 50
tell application "iTunes"
set t to current track
set ts to name of t
set art to artist of t
if art is not "" then
set ts to ts & " - " & art
end if
set alb to album of t
if alb is not "" then
set ts to ts & " - " & alb
end if
set origVol to sound volume
if (volumeLow is less than sound volume) then
set sound volume to volumeLow
end if
end tell
say (ts as string)
tell application "iTunes"
set sound volume to origVol
end tellthis script collects the track info from itunes, lowers the volume in itunes so you can hear the computer read the info, reads the info, and returns the volume to where it was before. you can change the value of the property volumeLow so itunes is louder or softer while reading the info. i also have this script attached to the pause button on my keyspan dmr. enjoy.
[robg adds: I edited the above script to insert some line breaks to reduce the width of this comment. The actual comment and the script were not changed.]

Wow, that's pretty cool. Fortunately for me my apartment is so small I can see my Cinema HD from anywhere! :)
