The "Try applescript Studio" responces are helpful. I have been getting
ready to sit down and learn how that system works, but I have not yet had
the time to jump in. Looks like I will have to now :).
But there is a wrinkle that I would like to really get fixed. I want to
CREATE an .app bundle with support files FROM an applescript.
Basicaly, I am working on an applicaiton that you launch, it asks you a
few questions, and then the output is a freshly created applescript that
will do some work for you. This "freshly created" applescript has some
support files that I would like to hide in a .app bundle with the
applescript.
I do not want toe resulting application to be something that the user has
to open in applescript studio and save by hand.

Have you tried AppleScript Studio ? It's on the OS 10.2 developer CD.
