Apple Events from Applescripts

Question

Hi:

I'm planning to make a little applescripts to do some action when iTunes change the song in playing, but i can't found how to put my script to listen for the apple event that should launch iTunes when the track change.

Did anyone knows? i know you can make a objetive-c application can register whith Apple Events Manager to listen for those events but i just want to something simple, so i wanna to do it with an applescript,

i've look around Apple developers docs but i can't found howto do it, so if anyone can help would be great,

thxs anyway.

iTunes does not issue track change notifications via Apple events, only via NSDistribututedNotifications. If you are on 10.6+, you could always write your listener application using AppleScriptObjC, which may simplify things a little, but you'll have to deal with Cocoa either way.
