I'm trying to write an applescript that will find the current file I'm

I'm having problems with is finding the file name.
So I go into Script Editor, I open the Dictionary, I see all these
objects
that are available. I'm certain that one of them has such
information. What
I'd like to do is "explore" the objects that are provided by the
application.
For general exploration, I'll second everyone else's recommendations
for Script Debugger. The explorer is a very cool feature.
However, for this specific problem, you should read the Xcode release
notes. Look in the "Older Release Notes" (see the Help menu), and
search for "external editor". vi and emacs are already there (emacs
works better), and any editor that defines the same protocol as BBEdit
will also work.
