You can using the REST API to return the Test Script data, but it will be in XML, for example:
GET

In this case my Public URI is "clm401:9443"
My QM Project is : LPA+project+1+%28Quality+Management%29
My Script ID is 34

You can use Poster (or any other HTTP client) to trigger the request. 
Also be sure to use the Request header text/xml or application/xml 
This will return the xml of the test script; you would need to then parse out the data you are interested in

Hello,
When you are viewing a list of test scripts, do you see the Download as spreadsheet (.csv) button on the toolbar?

Thanks!

yes, however this only produces the test scripts name and not the actual steps in the script.

Hello,
I just verified that this is the only test script information that you can currently export to CSV from the UI. 
Thanks,
Laura

Oh i see, could you please provide a link to submit this a feature request? Also is there documentation detailing how to accomplish this with the REST API?

Sure, the link for submitting enhancement requests is here: https://jazz.net/jazz02/web/projects/Rational%20Quality%20Manager#action=com.ibm.team.workitem.newWorkItem

This is the wiki documentation for the REST API, although I don't see specific information about export test scripts:

This forum post also had a suggestion about using the Copy Utility to get the XML and importing that into Excel:

Hello Ade,

2 other ways to get RQM Test Script Steps into a xls:

(1) Via Excel Importer and Test Case 'Run offline' mode (quick, easy)
Install the RQMExcelWordImporter
Find the Test Case which the Test Script is associated to. Click Run Offline.
This will generate a .rqms file, which you can easily open in xls using the RQM 'Import for offline' installed add-in.
This gives you all the Test Script Steps of the Test Script associated to the Test Case - see picture below.

(2) Create a RPE report: see this forum post (need RPE)

Hope this helps.
