Lines #2-4. They were before:

	export TSBIN="$HOME/Library/TeXShop/bin/tslatexmk"
	export LTMKBIN="$HOME/Library/TeXShop/bin/tslatexmk"
	export LTMKEDIT="$HOME/Library/TeXShop/bin"

I see something similar in GNU Emacs' dired buffer...


I wanted to make the ENGINE script, now that I know how easy it is to  
change it, produce in TeXShop's console window something like this:

It works in Terminal, but not in TeXShop! It's console "background" is  
not "ANSI aware," i.e., it does not execute the ANSI escape codes to  
change some text properties (and do more things). Anyway, here is my  
code. Please notice that I changed the two "no" into two "now!" (And  
for beauty reasons reduced --- to --.)

	#!/bin/bash
	export LTMKEDIT="$HOME/Library/TeXShop/bin"
	export    TSBIN="$LTMKEDIT/tslatexmk"
	export  LTMKBIN="$LTMKEDIT/tslatexmk"
	# make sure latexmkrcedit exists in bin
	if [ ! -e "${LTMKEDIT}/latexmkrcedit" ] ; then
		cp "${LTMKBIN}/latexmkrcDONTedit" "${LTMKEDIT}/latexmkrcedit"
	fi
	
	export basefname="`basename "$1" .tex`"
	pdflatex --shell-escape --synctex=1 --file-line-error "$1"
	if [ -e "${basefname}".asy ] ; then
	   echo -en "\n\e[40m\e[1;36m  asy is now running -- this may take  
some time...  \e[0m"
	   asy "${basefname}".asy
	   echo -en "\n \e[42m\e[1;30m  asy is done, now starting final  
pdflatexmk run  \e[0m\n"
	   "${LTMKBIN}"/latexmk -pdf -r "${LTMKEDIT}/latexmkrcedit" -r "$ 
{TSBIN}/pdflatexmkrc" "$1"
	fi
