"Now Playing" track info for Radiant Player

I use this as part of my tmux status, just be sure to chmod +x this script so that it will execute.

Here is an example of how i use this in my tmux.conf:
set -g status-right "#(~/.dotfiles/bin/radiant)"

Should be super simple to modify/adapt to whatever app you're using as long as the app supports applescript.

Enjoy!
