The format is not linked to the operating system.

When we save a script under Mac OS X, we may save it as :

text (.applescript)
script (.scpt)
script bundle (I apologize, I never used them so I will write nothing about them)
application (.app)
application bundle (.app)


application contain only the code matching the processor of the machine upon which we save.
bundle app contain code for both architecture : PPC and i386


As Snow Leopard is dedicated to a single architecture, we aren't offer the choice between application and application bundle.
The applications are saved as application bundle containing only the i386 code


As edstockly wrote, the choice «run only » is of an other nature.
When we use it, the resulting file will be executable but the user will be unable to read its code (and, as a consequence unable to edit it).


As far as I know, to create MacOS 9 scripts on a macOS X system, we must use the script editor from Classic and in this case there is no way to save as bundle.

I hope that my memory didn't fool me.
