Hi,
I can change the volume level from the command line using this command, for example:
osascript -e 'set Volume 3'
Is there a way to detect the current volume level using a similar command and a way to assign it to a variable?
And just for good measure, are there similar commands for detecting and setting the current balance?
Thanks for your help,

osascript -e 'output volume of (get volume settings)'
there's no direct way to get or manipulate balance through applescript. there might be an osax or app somewhere that does it, but I don't know of one.
I found a solution:
I found the solution.
I used the following system call to an osasciprt command from a perl script:
$currentVolumeLevel = `osascript -e 'set curVolume to output volume of (get volume settings)'`
The idea comes from Matt at http://www.macosxtips.co.uk/geeklets...olume-level-1/
