Brennan,

AppleScript's text item delimiters are used in both directions - for parsing strings into lists, and for joining lists into strings. For instance:

set AppleScript's text item delimiters to "."
set parsedStringAsList to the text items of "one.two.three"
--> result {"one", "two", "three"}

set AppleScript's text item delimiters to "-"
set joinedListAsString to {"one", "two", "three"} as string
--> result "one-two-three"

Cheers!
