it's more the reverse ... typescripts are the interface and deep down it
is translated to the right commands for pdftex, zetex or luatex

normally there ar etwo runs (depends on how many changes in the
documents); any macro package that uses multi pass data will do several
runs to be sure that the cross refs and lists are ok (also, some pdf
constructs use forward references that need to be resolved)

typescripts are just definitions and invoking a one of them (which
itself may invoke another) will define a typeface which itself
eventually results in a bunch of font definitions
