Append ".command" to the filename to have the Finder recognise it as as
executable script.


"filename" -> generic, do nothing file
"filename.command" -> Finder launches script

At least here (Mac OS X, Script Debugger 3.0.5) I have the option of saving
a script as an "Application" (no resources) or "Classic Application" (with
resources).

I don't' use Script Editor, so don't know what options it has, but I know
AppleScript applications can be data-fork only.
