Applescript scpt files

[zeRafio]

The problem with the Applescript scpt format is that it is based on OSAdecompile. This makes any application called in the script to be launched. In case of compiled scripts saved by Script Debugger, the file is given a Carbon Resource Fork. If you could read this resource, it will avoid the application launch. Do you think it can be possible to handle it (putting it in a try statement)?

Here is a file for tests : test scpt file.zip

Some other have the same interest

Using my plugin this is the preview of your file (which I think is equivalent to what you see when opening the file with scriptdebugger):

is it correct?

Bonjour ! Thank you for answering me so fast. Here is a screenshot of what I get when viewing a scpt file in finder :  This one is for a plist fiie:  As you can see, Quicklook is rendering well both the previews but not the icon thumbnail for the scpt. I think it has something to do with OSAdecompile…

I don't see your screenshots, however my plugin won't generate icon previews for any files, only the quick look preview.

Sorry. I don't know why I was convinced of the opposite. Thanks any way. Have a good day!
