I don't think there's an easy way to do this with plain AppleScript, Markus.

You don't say which version of the OS you're using, but if its X and you
don't mind enlisting a bit of third-party assistance, you could use Youpi
Key - free from http://perso.club-internet.fr/phupe/english/index.html

This will let you emulate key-strokes, or sequences of key-strokes - so you
could create a sequence [command+I; tab; command+c; command+w] to copy the
icon of a selected item.

The sequence can then be triggered by a hot key, from the Youpi Key menu, or
with an applescript.

Mr Tea
