Last active August 2, 2017 03:06
An applescript that returns the timecode position of the current iTunes track. Handy if transcribing or taking notes on an audio file!
tell application "iTunes"
set elapsed_seconds to player position
set this_elapsed_minutes to round elapsed_seconds / 60 rounding down
set N to result
if N < 10 then
set N to 0 & N
end if
set this_elapsed_seconds to elapsed_seconds mod 60
if {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0} contains this_elapsed_seconds then
set this_elapsed_seconds to "0" & (this_elapsed_seconds as string)
