Scripts can be saved in one of three formats:
- As a script text file which can be opened in standard text editing
applications.
- As a compiled script file which can be run from a script menu.
- As a stand-alone application which is launched by double-clicking
its icon.
Further options:
- Compiled scripts can optionally be saved in a non-editable format
by selecting a checkbox labeled "Run Only" when saving them.
- For stand-alone applications you may choose any combination (or
none) of the following options by selecting their corresponding
"Options" checkboxes when saving them:
- Run Only - selecting this option will save the application in a
non-editable format.
- Startup Screen - if checked, the script application upon launch
will display a dialog containing the text from the script
Description field.
- Stay Open - choose this option if the script contains an idle
handler. It will cause the application to remain active until
you quit it.
- Requires Classic - choose this option if you want the
application to run on Mac OS 9 systems.
What I refer to as "an AS app and a snippet of AS code" is just that
- an AppleScript (stand-alone) application and (some lines of)
AppleScript code that can added to an AppleScript document, be it a
AS text file, AS compiled script, or a AS application.
IMO, it's very straight-forward - there are 3 kinds of AS files. PM,
uses from the script menu in PM, the second kind that is the compiled
script files.
Shall I repost my solution?
