Generally you open "Applescript Editor" and then put the text into  the edit 
box, and hit run.  

This will "compile" and run the script.  Then you can quit  once you don't get 
errors.  There are actually a few ways to save the script, but if you want to 
be able to  edit it again, you want to leave the default type of .scpt which 
has  If you save the script in ~/Library/Scripts/ or perhaps a subdirectory  of 
that directory.

Best wishes,
