as far as I know an uncompiled AppleScript is just a text file. A compiled script on the other hand is a binary. If you open a compiled AppleScript in an editor — that unlike TextMate — does not support decompilation then you should see “gibberish” instead of the source code. You can try it yourself by opening `refresh_viewer` in “vim” or “TextEdit”.

If the checkbox on the left of the LaTeX bundle in Preferences→Bundles is selected, then TextMate might have overwritten your changes. If that is not the case, then TextMate should not overwrite the cloned version.

Just try to open `refresh_viewer.scpt` inside `Support/bin` with “Script Editor”. You should get an error message containing something like the following text:

    The document “refresh_viewer.scpt” could not be opened.

    Unable to read the file because the script is not editable (it was saved as run-only).
