Hey there, on Wed Aug 17 06:39:15 2011, Marconi wrote the following interesting missive:

Is there any way to read or edit a run-only AppleScript? Any way to defeat the run-onliness by decompiling or resetting a flag or some such?

In a word, no.  Whenever you compile a script as run only, you should make a second copy that is editable.

If it were my script, I'd have certainly done that. It is, however, inside an application bundle of an app that is no longer supported. When I updated my workstation to Snow Leo, the app developed problems that I'd like to fix, since the original author isn't going to.

Or use this:  http://web.me.com/lutherfuller/Software_Cat/Script_Bundle_Tool.html

It will create an uneditable application bundle from an editable script file
and keep track of the version and build numbers
and make a locked editable copy of the source script named with version and build (optional)
(But, don't use it with Lion, yet. A new version soon.)
