When we learned some time ago how can we create a Growl notification system for REALbasic using AppleScript I forgot to add how to protect our script from stealing. In this quick tip we will learn this. Watch it, learn it, enjoy it!
To protect our AppleScript against copy or edit we must save it with Run only option checked. So if your AppleScript is ready to rock Compile it and then go to File -> Save As… and like on the screenshot select the Run only option and save the file. Now when you will use it in your REALbasic application everything will work as you think, but if someone will want to preview your AppleScript he will get a message that this is impossible. Hope you like this tip and see you next time!
