AppleScript Newbie with a Spotlight (Mac) problem.

Hi !

I use Revolution LiveCode to write all my programs,
and I can't think of a way to get over my problem.

On my Mac, I want to call Spotlight, and channel the
output to a text file, but I don't think it is possible.
What I want to do with the text output is not important.
The rest I will do in LiveCode.

I have not found any method of getting a text file when
running Spotlight under Mac OS X.

Is there a way of doing this with an AppleScript script ?

Grateful thanks to anyone who has a solution.

-Francis
