AppleScript is a macOS way to ask other applications to perform action, or to return data.

It would be nice if PlexAmp exposed:

- Playback controls (play/pause, next, prev, shuffle, play track/playlist/mix, etc)
- Playback information (song name, artist name, duration, rating, etc)
- Lists of different kinds (get playlists, mixes, artists, albums by artist, etc)

I’d really like to implement Raycast integration, and AppleScript support will help a lot with it

100%! This enables apps like Sleeve & MediaMate to communicate with media player apps.
