Having had no idea what AppleScript is, but googling for 5 minutes, i came 
up with this:

http://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn2002/tn2065.html

where you can use 'do shell script "/bin/tcsh my-command-file-path"'

But then again, why not just use a Unix script in the first place? Sorry if 
thats no help.
