So in the following below, I have found a script in Ruby which will compile a
document in pdflatex, then in asymptote, then again in pdflatex, rendering the
pdf output with the embedded asymptote generated files.  This text is great for
inserting into the latex bundle as a custom command, so that at one keystroke
you can generate the desired output.

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

# compile latex file at least one time 
sout = system("pdflatex '$TM_FILEPATH'")

# create asy files
if sout
  sout = system("asy ${TM_FILENAME/%.tex/'*'.asy}")
end

# Re-Run pdflatex
if sout
  sout = system("pdflatex '$TM_FILEPATH'")
end
