If you've created the applet using Project Builder then in the build target
you do:
set LSUIElement = 1

You can create an Applescript-only applet in PB (in effect an Applescript
Studio app with no nib file, I guess).

I'm not sure whether you can hack around retrospectively using PB to alter
an app's LSUIElement. Probably not, I would guess.
