Can someone explain to me in a few short sentences what Script Editor's "save as application bundle" means? If it's not possible to explain in a brief message, could someone direct me to an Applescript book which might explain it? (I have the O'Reilly book, but that is about two years out of date.)

Straight from the latest AppleScript release notes at <http://www.apple.com/applescript/releasenotes/192OSX.html>...

AppleScript 1.9.2 supports a new bundled format for compiled scripts and script applications (applets) that uses standard Mac OS X bundles. Compiled script bundles have the filename extension ".scptd", while applet bundles have the filename extension ".app". [3150267] [3150248]

Scripting additions can be embedded within bundled applets by placing them in a folder named Scripting Additions inside the bundle's Contents/Resources/ folder. Note that Script Editor does not look for embedded scripting additions when editing bundled applets. Any required scripting additions must be properly installed in the normal locations during script development so that Script Editor can find them. [3314117]
