The command
path to me
or
name of current application
should be the Applescript equivalent of $0.
But neither of them works in iTunes scripts menu.

This script cannot be saved due to syntax error in the second line.
The requirements for 'path to me' in the above script are OS X 10.4
minimum, saved as a script bundle, and that it be run from a suitable
executable.
There is no problem saving the above script in OS X 10.4.8. But you
can not run it in Script Editor.
You can put it in ~/Library/Scripts and run it from the Script menu
in the menu bar.
You can run it in Terminal by:
% osascript ptm.scptd
I don't know much about iTunes but you can always run a script which
calls 'osascript' to call your script.
