Copy selected tracks or playlist to a new iPod, iPad, or iPhone playlist

Select tracks or a playlist of tracks in iTunes and add them to a new or existing playlist on a connected iPod, iPhone, or iPad. The device must be set to "Manually manage music and videos". Incompatible with devices using iTunes Match. Very handy when assigned a keyboard shortcut. I use Control-Command-N.

After selecting some tracks or a playlist in iTunes, run the script, select a device (if more than one is mounted), enter a name for the new playlist (or not), and the tracks will be copied.
