Subject: drapplet?

I rarely make script apps, so this may be a really naive question. Is it widely (at all?) recognized that you can have a script app that can be run either by double-clicking or by dragging files over it? A "drapplet"? As follows:

-- Demonstration of a "drapplet":

-- a script that can be run either by double-clicking

-- or by dragging files over its icon

on run argv

display alert "Double-clicked or run from editor"

-- I don't know how to tell the difference

end run

on open args

set oldDelimiters to AppleScript's text item delimiters

set AppleScript's text item delimiters to {return & return}

try

display alert "Files dropped:" & return & return & (args as text)

end try

set AppleScript's text item delimiters to oldDelimiters

end open
