I've been playing around with a method of grabbing particluar text from the filename of a script application. Using such a method would allow non-scripters an easy way of "hard-coding" some text, rather than opening a script and entering a property or setting a variable. Startup iTunes-Some Playlist is my first stab at something practical using this method. The script is an applet that you would load in your Login Items. By changing the "Some Playlist" part of its name to the name of one of your iTunes playlists, the script, when activated at startup, would play that playlist. Specific instructions for changing the filename are included as well as how to set Login Items in the Accounts System Preferences.Of course, you could always just simply write a script applet that played a playlist and load that in Login Items. But where's the challenge in that? :)
