A file with '.scpt' should be an 'osas' file, just as a file with '.txt'
should be a 'TEXT' file, no?

However, couldn't you just use the "name extension" property of "get info"?
(This is not available in OS9, but it seems to be available in OSX, at least
according to the Apple web pages, as part of the "essential subroutines"

Specifically, see the Finder Droplets handler for a sample usage of this
property.
